"...After all my hard work, you want me to just GIVE AWAY this valuable information??? -:)..." That's right! Some folks pay the big bucks for that info. I hope Math can find them and tell us what the one, three and five year results look like. I betcha if you take out that flaky internet stock picking contest from ten years ago...you will see a negative annual return since inception! Booyah!

This is the second time I am asking this. Did you lie when you say you answer questions about Brinker? Q#1: Where do I find the returns for Brinker's Fixed Income Advisor newsletter? I can't find those listed even for 2008 ANYWHERE on any of the Brinker sites. Q#2:Can you find them? Q#3:How did his three FIXED INCOME portfolios do in 2008, a year the total bond fund gained over 5%? Hulbert says one of the fixed income portfolios lost over 20%! I would think one would have to TRY to lose that much in fixed income in an up year but what do I know as our fixed income only portfolio made money. I didn't think to try and lose money for a whole portfolio. Q#4:Hulbert calculates different returns than Marketimer lists for 2008. Hulbert's are LOWER! I've been exchanging emails with him to see why... He won't tell me if Brinker would have made the Honor roll if he had used the returns Brinker posts on his web site. Any idea why? I betcha you won't answer all these ON TOPIC these questions in any useful way.
