" Many subscribers have never forgotten what they regard as a disastrous Brinker trade in 2000 and his subsequent cover-up. (In a special bulletin, but not in his model portfolio, Brinker suggested Nasdaq 100 Trust (QQQ) , the Nasdaq 100 exchange-trade fund on the American Stock Exchange. So HFD did not count it - just as well, because it promptly collapsed. Avalanches of email attack any favorable mention of him. "

Isn't that something that no newsletter purveyor would be proud of? "AND HIS SUBSEQUENT COVERUP".

So we have "DISASTEROUS" advice and a "SUBSEQUENT COVERUP" about Bob Brinker in an article.

Sounds like describing the Plumbers work in the Nixon days with G Gordon Liddy. Hardly something anyone would want written about them. It screams that ethical and honest behavior is not a part of the Bob Brinker enterprise.

"I agree with what Peter Brimelow says about getting loads of emails from Brinker's subscribers who did buy the QQQQ on his advice." says agreeable Kirk.

Of course Brimelow got loads of emails. It took you, Stocky, the Hon and 101 other fun loving zealots days and days to get those emails out.

Somebody said that you guys had a contest to see who could send the most emails under the most aliases and Stocka won it hands down. But that wasn't fair because he already had a dozen variations of whiny canned letters on file.

BTW Kirk, you also say..."I got one of those emails from one of his subscribers wondering what to do just this weekend. My guess is she was not satisfied from the answer Brinker gave Mary since the email came a few hours after that call."

WOW! I'm impressed. I had no idea that people would email you because they didn't like Brinker's answer.

Maybe that email was really from "Mary". Did you ask her if she had 20 years to retirement? That is the whole key right there.

And BTW Kirk, I was thinking. If somebody was foolish enough to subscribe to Brinker's newsletter through your marked-up link and then cancels...do you refund your commission too?

I bet not but I could be wrong.

"Avalanches of email attack any favorable mention of him [Brinker]."

LOL. We know the feeling.
