but the problems will pass - some very good information on that board. ------ Over the last several months or longer. The problems have gotten nothing but worse. No doubt there is good info there. But it is getting too mixed (overwhelmed) with the name calling and insults. And with the OPINIONS which many put forward as FACT. Only to have those with the REAL TRUST FACT and REAL TRUST DATA coming to the rescue to set the matter straight then having to suffer through the name calling and insults. And also with all sorts of off topic discussions. That board just lost a PRIME member with Easterner leaving because he had enough of it. How many more??? And how many over the past???. Myself included. The blame of which lay solely on the shoulders of the moderator. He has done a real disservice to that board. He banned one and threatened to ban others to protect the board. But going through the postings shows after that one he has only threatened to ban others and has not done so. He has been more concerned with keeping those with ties to the newsletter or the "regulars" happy. Instead of helping joe average trust investor. And has let them (regulars) have free reign to limit what is discussed and how it is discussed and let them resort to their trademark insults and name calling when they cant defend what they say or put forward with anything like real trust fact and data. That helps no one.----- ----- A prime case in point (recent past) has been some of the regulars insistance that an individual can do better on his own than can the trusts of trusts (SDT or EIT). One poster said to settle that argument it maybe would be of benefit to have those that could ,could set up a model portfolio of trusts that others could follow and then compare to the trusts of trusts. THAT NEVER HAS HAPPENED OR WILL EVER HAPPEN. ---- Full of talk and show with little of substance (unless you want to dig for it amid the clutter) that someone (joe) can actually use or benefit from. that has become its trademark. And with more and more of those that can and want to contribute to truly help others leaving (either forced or fed up). ----
