It would be completely irresponsible for a conservative money investor to recommend trading the QQQ's to the tune of 32% of one's total portfolio - have to agree with you there.

I do not remember hearing or reading about such a trade personally. It goes against everything BB has preached.

I still suspect that the people who got creamed both:

A) Got greedy and tossed caution to the wind with the 4% rule
B) Didn't cut their losses when the trade started to sour

Maybe others will pay heed to your advice, geode. But I will continue to be a "Money Talk" listener

How do you figure that he has buried the QQQ position? He mentions it in every newsletter.

It is true that he doesn't talk about it on the radio, but he didn't recommend it on the radio either.
