Strategies & Market Trends : Bob Brinker: Market Savant & Radio Host -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

I second the value of the idea of BB participating in net based discussions. In a few years after the under $1000 pc really takes off, the net might become more influencial than radio. It may be that Bob has been under contractual obligations limiting venues for providing financial advice. His non-Moneytalk appearences have always been for charity or non-profit (NBR.) The Moneytalk host responds to questions on the ABC forum on AOL but doesn't respond here. I hope the hangups in renewing his contract revolved around reducing any such limits. (Since he undoubtably lives beyond the land of critical mass in the land of monopoly money, the hangups may not have been simply financial.) If the fools had taken over, surely they wouldn't have given up their web site. -- Alan

All: I am quite dismayed at the direction of this discussion to deteriorate quickly to the level of BB Sr.'s fees. I would have expected by now that folks realized this is not the motivating factor behind what BB Sr. participates in. His charitable work is not preformed strictly due to contractual obligations with ABC Radio. This is ridiculous. In the future I hope to host a discussion group on the bobbrinker.com site. Unfortunately, the bobbrinker.com site is a hobby, not a job. I can only put in effort to develop the site in my spare time. Anyone (everyone!) would be welcomed to join the discussion at no charge. Visitors would be subject to advertising banners which suspport the cost of having the site. Maybe Bob Sr. would participate, then again maybe he will wont. I can assure you it is not an issue of collecting a fee! Get real! -bb jr.
