I would not object to your complaints so much if Brinker still allowed libraries to carry his newsletter. He used to tell callers to the show they could read it there for free if they wished. After his QQQQ disaster, he told libraries to remove his newsletter and he canceled subscriptions. This occured shortly after some on my site reported libraries had LAMINATED this bulletin into their "Marketimer" binders suite101.com for library patrons. How the hell does one due DD if Brinker uses his power to remove any trace of recommending people put up to 30% of THEIR TOTAL PORTFOLIO into QQQ in the $80's in late 2000? (Remember he told some radio callers it was OK to go to 100% cash reserves so I've had people who were P3 retired types who put the full 20% of their portfolio in.) Tell me where we can get an official statement that says "if you followed Brinker's SPECIFIC ADVICE to THE LETTER then you got much lower returns than he advertises." I've tired of the nonsense on these boards about this but it seems Brinker still has a few who don't hold him accountable.

>>> Get over it and move on. <<< Well just for your information, this board is not my whole life ya know.... It just amazes me how a well known professional like Bob Brinker with a national radio audience of dedicated fans and supporters could act so unprofessional (in my honest opinion of course) over a pretty large trade that cost some of his supporters big bucks... So do not be surprised as to why people are still talking about it these days, because they will most likely still be talking about it five or ten years from now. And what do you expect from something so shocking? People can't get over it because it is so unusual.
