Kirk and Korn don't claim to be Wall Street professionals like Brinker does. They aren't on national radio each weekend boasting about their stock market abilities. But they DO claim to be professional investment advisors, don't they? Gee, I wonder if either or both wouldn't jump at the chance to do a national radio show each weekend for 20 years as Brinker has done, if anyone asked them. I'm wondering if anyone has asked them, or offered to sponsor them, even for one year. But I'm not wondering very much.

"Although I did catch David Korn on Paul Merriman's show sound investing. The subject was the investment outrage of the week and they were talking about how Brinker handled the QQQ debacle." said the impostor. -------------------------------------------------------- See there fake fahre? That's exactly what I mean. Both Korn and Kirk's ONLY claim to whatever small degree of noteriaty they have is solely because of the parasitic relationship with Brinker they have developed over many years. Korn has no formal investment qualifications whatsoever and was on Merriman's show simply because he has been following and copying Brinker for years. And now he finally wangled a spot on a radio show to tell the world how badly Brinker screwed up. Do you think Merriman would have invited Korn if he didn't have an outrageous Brinker story? Not a chance! While it appears that Korn has been more successful than Kirk in attracting some degree of recognition that fact remains that both are nothing more than parasitic bottom feeders trying to glean a few pennies from Brinker's success. Both are peddling newsletters and websites that wouldn't even exist if it weren't for Brinker. And even at that, most folks don't even know they exist. Small fry wannabes at best.
