Yeah, all it takes is the knowledge that, if you invest through a traditional broker, you can't unload a dog or buy more shares of a flyer because the commissions are too damn high! Thanks just the same, Forbes, but I'll take the online broker where I can unload a dog for next to nothing, and where I can buy additional shares of a flyer for next to nothing. Look at ANY well-regarded investment treatise and they say active trading can't beat buy-and-hold because the transactional costs are too high! So much for that argument!!!
