Ah, the mantra of the wall street pimps. We MUST SPEND our entire research/development/advertising/cookie jar funds to buy a 30 second superbowl ad. Because if you dont grab this precious beach front real estate, in just a year from now it will be IMPOSSIBLE to get customers.

We're sure that before that happens, the markets will give us enough money to try and start an actual business. Oh hell, who are we kidding. We just need it to look like we're staying busy doing something while we wait for our options to vest. /and if we're an underwriter, we'll flip our shares within the first few minutes of trading and lock on a nice tidy 400% profit.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Pcln to me is a pain in the ass if you want to use their service. I can get cheap tickets, hotel rooms, groceries, and all the other stuff without hassle.

Charley- try emailing the good professor and asking him if he has ever bought one stock in his life.

I have emailed several college professors who have been quoted in major publications, or written entire articles in mags. None of them answered affirmative. Four out of six did not ever repsond to my repeated inquiries. The last two declined, and actually wanted me to fill out lengthy questionaires to recieve a free copy of their advisory. I of course declined.

Charley, show me a professor who really knows anything real about the stock market, and I will show you the wicked witch who flies by my house on a broom every morning!

You were right. The guy is biased, and I would add, most likely a charlatan-fraud.
