skeeter- I think he proved he is a great radio entertainer AND proved what you say about being a genius in a bull market. I remember being offended at first years ago when I was more of a fan and YOU said he was a monkey with a buy the dips button... His timing of TEFQX and the Nasdaq proved you right. I ALSO remember being upset that Rillinois was causing so many regulars distress here... then I started to read what he said, looked into the facts for myself... and then became "not so big a fan"...

Skeeter Bug, Re: bob fell for the b2b internet scam Not only did he fall for it, he fell for it right at the TOP. And not only did he fall for it right at the TOP, he was vehemently on the sidelines of the internet run-up from the beginning. It boggles the mind....Bob must have capitulated and gave into the new economy crowd and the "it's different this time" crowd. <g> I didn't post this at the time, but I remember what really confused me about his B2B call is that everyone and their mother was saying that B2B was a slam dunk at the time and Bob often says that he likes being the lone voice in the wilderness. He was just following the herd. His recommendation was also very contradictory given his views at the time that the Nasdaq was equivalent to a casino. I came to the conclusion that Bob recommended TEFQX as a hedge against his "tactical asset allocation". If the market were to have taken off while he was sitting on 60% cash, what better way to make up for some lost ground than have a high octane high flying sector like B2B on the recommended list. Best Regards. Rillinois
