Thanx, I have the 2 year sub. with the tape. You can lead a horse to H2o, ...... I also have one of his "tres cher" services. (the email one). He's been wrong more than right lately. I seem to recall someone wise (I think you) suggested a while back to just use Bernie as a guide, but do yer own DD. I can't agree more strongly. Some of his methods seem to be, for lack of a better term, "archaic", in that they're dated. I also think that even the supposed "instantaneous" idea of the email service, which is what attracted me to overpay for the thing, is way too slow.....Of his suggestions that popped, I wasn't able to enter at the suggested max price, it was already way over that, probably due to the flock rushing in and creating their own market, beating me to the punch, so to speak. Should probably take this one over to the "bernie" thread..... Unfortunately for me, the worst possible thing happened back in October. (Based on my observations of, <gasp>, gamblers) In Oct. I made an absolute killing (close to 100K, based on 12 K original investment) on AOL puts. In < a week. Coming back to the well, is all. Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered, Oui? (or rather wee-wee) Well, suffice it to say there's still hope, the weeks less than half over, also, I bought 'em based on a stock price of about 87, so I'll only lose about 20-33% of my 10K investment (investment?) if this one holds its ground thru expy..... PS- thinking strongly about rolling what's left of these puppies into Jan, or even later....but the premium and comm's is gonna be an owie.....
