Dick said: "The fact is that most folks (what, 50%-60% of adult americans?) who invest in the equity markets, don't even know who Bob Brinker is much less follow his advice. You may not believe this...."

Oh but I do agree with it -- with the stipulation that the exact numbers are sheer speculation. It could be more or less, but I'd say it safe to assume that the majority never heard of him.

Dick said: "The ultimate responsibility for our individual decisions rests within ourselves, using Brinker or any other financial advisor or newsletter writer as a scapegoat is merely a means to deny personal culpability."

I totally agree with that. I have often said that it doesn't matter what anyone does or does not do with Brinker's advice and recommendations.

What matters is what he has advised and recommended -- that is what HE is responsible for. Don't you agree?
