Math,

those look to be decent returns *on paper*.

what we need to know is how much money Brinker put into the portfolios and when.

so you are saying he *never* added money since 1/99?

i don't believe that for a second.

i won't argue the theoretical value of those returns, but i don't think they actually exist for real.

you can count the number of people who lump summed into his portfolios on jan 1 1999 and didn't add a dime on the fingers of your hand... your third hand.

Math, Regarding specifically P3, we all know it was worth more money a year ago than it is now. And at some time several years ago, as it was rising upward to reach the value it was at a year ago, it passed $162,563 on it's way up .

Do you happen to know the approximate date in which P3 was worth $162,563 on it's way upward bound? My guess is somewhere around January 2006, but I have no way of knowing.

The reason I ask is I'm in something which looks similar to P3, and my net worth is almost the same as it was in January 2006. Yup, the it's like I've been asleep for the last 3 years.

So, since I've made this guess, does anyone know the value of P3 in January 2006??

Just curious.
