Kirk, That old saying about a picture being worth a thousand words is certainly demonstrated in that graph. Brinker did a major CYA this weekend, and the thing that is so comical is that he showed his "disdain" for Bernard Madoff by never using his name. He repeatedly called him "The Mad Dog." He always has enjoyed using the names of people in a pejorative way when he wants to insult. He has been doing it for many years, including right here on this board. I recall that he turned "Rillinios" into "Ill annoy." He really is not a very classy person and even less so when he's anonymous. .

Have you noticed how some here have a mission to change Brinker's advice from "lump sum 100% into the market at 808 in March of 2003" followed by a "GIFT HORSE BUYING OPPORTUNITY at $1450" with SPECIFIC advice to not rebalance a "balanced portfolio #3" from 66% equities back to 50% equities at the top to "dollar cost average" Incredible, isn't it! I missed those messages. which messages are you talking about???? I'm not saying they didn't happen, I'm just asking where they are, and which messages you are referring to. If you are making IRA purchases, each one is a lump sum at the time you get the money. I don't agree.
