Man, that makes me sad. This in particular really speaks to me.:

If I cannot make money on
INTC, QCOM, RMBS and EXTR in the next three months, I will EXIT the market and never enter again because
that means I have no idea what the Houses are doing.


I wish he had. And I wish he'd encouraged his followers to do the same.

'Ho ho ho,' to coin a phrase ...

(borrowed from the CFZ, actually...I would never attempt to plagiarize anyone there or elsewhere <g>)

Thomas, indeed. I know five.

What is despicable is the attitudes ... discussion recently about taking responsibility for oneself ... always in a snide sarcastic vein. Couple of 'em 'over there.' 'Important', 'leader types.'

The threads that moderate out 'naysayers' who, yes, CRITICIZE the attitudes, character and personalities of 'prominent' thread personas as related to the influence they cultivate have proven to ruin many of those that 'listened.'

And 'respected' said 'leaders.'

LOL. I thought that was a load of self-serving and sanctimonious crap the first time I saw such a reference.

It's one thing to start a thread and discuss investing and moderate it. It's quite another to DEMAND 'respect,' rather than to command -- or earn -- it.
