<Every year I go through value line and try to convince myself tp buy value now since I have enough. This was the first time I almost did. Pick one up and try to see if you can justify buying PG and all. I think you will see that it just doesn't make sense. If you are going to go that way, you are going to end up trying to grab things like WMI, rather than Ko. You end up buying turn arounds and things below book. It just doesn't work real well. It may make some sense to just buy BRK for all non tech plays. Why not let Buffett handle that part of your porfolio? He will know what to do.> As you may know from my recent posts, I also toyed with the idea of investing in the old economy. I've now decided against it, going instead with "pure-play" interest bearing instruments, and using the rest for LT and ST gains in the stocks that are my passions. I know and understand these stocks, so there is no reason to dilute that competitive advantage, as long as I have my living expenses covered in other ways. Whew! I now know what childbirth must be like. <g>
