"I wonder if the bus driver actually reads the stuff he posts. After all, he is a chartered subscriber to one of those phony, penny-ante, Internet stock picking newsletters."

This is a personal attack and slander and has noting to do with Bob Brinker.

What do you have against honest, hard working bus drivers besides one doesn't like Bob Brinker?

Speaking of bus drivers, Brinker actually uses one in the intro to his radio program. You hear Ralph Kramden played by Jackie Gleason say: "These are the keys that are going to make us a fortune".

shres, thanks for pointing out 101 is a site that welcomes varying points of view and ideas to consider. Unlike the shutdown despot boards on brinker’s site.

I don’t claim to be to have all the answers but if you notice brinker does have numerous actively managed funds in his model portfolios and also recommends individual stocks as well. In the article you referenced Oyster was merely expressing his opinion. I believe investors can make great returns using any number of strategies. I think what is more important is to pick one you are comfortable with and understand. Then have the discipline to stick to the plan. I’ll have to admit even brinker does better than those poor folks involved with load funds and brokers that churn accounts.

I do believe I know the real reason for your attack. Could it be you are unsettled because a bus driver reverse engineered bob’s timing model? I am developing a big following and am told by several long time brinker fans I do a great job and seem to know what bob is going to write before he publishes is newsletter. Some are even foregoing renewal of MT and substituting my FREE updates. Who knows maybe when I reach Critical Mass I’ll stop driving and do a radio show two days a week!

I think we can all agree brinker is a lightning rod for controversy. I suspect that is due mostly to his behavior. The UTEK scandal. The QQQ mulligan. Rudeness towards callers.

BTW how about you sign your posts using your real name? Show some guts!
