Daddy brinker may have made a better offer than an old mutual fund company. LOL! At least over the past ten years, Bob Jr. has become more conservative at choosing investments--as his "fixed income" newsletter would indicate...

Quite frankly, it never occured to me to go into the financial sector. I was extremely fortunate as a kid to be able to play around with computer and I was hooked as a young teenager. I remeber purchasing basic programming books & typing the programs into our brand new TI99/4a computer. I would save the programs by recording them onto a cassette recorder. Those where the days...we've come a long way. A few hours of typing in program lines, days of debugging typo-s (no debuggers back than, it either worked or it didn't!), and I might see a few characters jump across the black & white tv i had plugged in. It was a strange time.

Anyway, in college I was immediately hooked on Mgmt. Info. Systems and have never looked back. Now, with a Master's degree in the field and a few years of development/proj. mgmt experience I am doing just fine. I am perfectly happy (as many of us in the thread are) with getting my financial rewards through my own personal investing. But who knows what the future holds???? (of course I am always accepting offers if some company really wants to pay me mega-bucks as a mutual fund mgr. That seems like a great job! I would, of course, build a fund around high tech internet companies that are on the b-leading edge).

Sorry to here you went to Nebraska, where the coach of the football team is more powerful than the sheriff. Last year was close, you were saved by the sloppy weather (our aerial tack was not hindered by your defense of course, it was the cold, rainy weather!). This year it is back in Boulder and I hope to make it to that game!

"--When did Jr. say THAT?

I keep asking you to verify these quotes you come up with,"

<<I never had any quotes from Junior pup in my post. If it is not obvious to you that Jr has not been as successful as he thought he would be in the AD PAD internet hosting bidness (nothing wrong with that--been a bust for many people) and is desperately trying to build a resume in a field in which he expressed "NO INTEREST WhATSOEVER" -- unless I believe he said "I could be paid big bucks to run a fund like Fidelity Magellan"-- by having a most lacking in interest "fixed income newsletter".
If you don't think my guess is correct that he is trying to build this resume to take over for the old man who is nearing 70 in the radio hype dependent cash cow that is Marketimer to goobers and geezers then please buy the bridge I have on Ebay.
If you have any logical other explanation please expound.>>

---Thanks, stockalot.Then I was correct that you just made it all up. Good of you to admit it.

<<If you have anything more logical in the rest of your post and not lying about what I posted feel free to post it again and I might read it.>>

--It wouldn't matter if you read it, because your mind is completely closed. What would be the point in you reading someone who disagrees with you?
