Twice as many people have me bookmarked as you

investing is not a popularity contest. while there are some very intelligent people on SI with a lot of bookmarks, there are also a number of people i kinda wonder about. depending on the person, i consider a lot of bookmarks to be a contrarian indicator.

Cramer is an example of somebody with a lot of bookmarks. he has his own TV show and huge following. but he reco'd tech stocks in March 2000 and financials in 2007.

for the individual investor seeking to beat the markets, it's important that there be a good supply of idiots. without these people to buy high and sell low, it would not be possible to obtain large profits, and people like me would need a day job.

to all the idiots of the world, keep following the Cramers, keep following all the popular people, keep watching CNBC, keep buying tech stocks. and, most of all: don't quit your day job!

you are the one who started up with that Jack Nicholson quote with some silly sexism slur, on an INVESTMENT stock board, LOL

actually, i was just quoting what another poster, YourNameHere, already posted HERE. if you don't like it, take it up with her. however, i am afraid you might have a tough time debating her, despite your incredibly large collection of peoplemarks which naturally proves you are like smarter than everybody.
