Hi Bob,
Right inside the front cover:
"Everything You Don't Need to Make a Million:

A big bankroll
Advice from a broker
Insiders' tips
In-depth research
A bullish economy
Expert mathematical knowledge
<Constant decision making
Ticker watching
Luck"


Pgs 49-57 about trading monthly.

Pg 179 Read the answer to the first question in 1980 session.

Pg 22-25 About price movement

Pg 188 About single stock AIM programs

Pg 196 Percentage of trades as commission

At the bottom of page 199 Mr. L says "My point is, AIM is what it is. I built it to serve one purpose only, and that is safety--preservation of capital--plus high performance in a single program, something that had never been done before to this extent. And the parts that make AIM work were precisely engineered for those specific functions. What you ... are trying to do is insert your own diodes, transistors and varistors ... without realizing that every action has a reaction, and that what might here is very likely to cause a short over there. Instead of trying to force my Money machine to cough up trading stamps, why not start from scratch and design a machine specifically for coughing up trading stamps? i think it would be easier."

I realize that we are in a new market. Nothing is the same today as it was 25 years ago. But maybe not, I still read posts from people who realize that they are not as good with stocks as they are at playing Blackjack. Some of them may have read Mr. L's book. It's unfortunate that they are not willing to give it a chance. What would be sad is for someone like you, after we have a really bearish period in the market, to decide that AIM does not work. You really haven't seen it in operation.
Hope this helps.
Bernie
