Jim B. Food for thought: and I hope it's burp-free. I spent 20 years in the "financial Planning" industry. When my daughter was born I realized I didn't want her growing up with any of the people I worked with. Kids shouldn't be around people who blame everybody but themselves for the miseries of life. Kids shouldn't be around people who love money and use people. They should be around people who love people and use money. In 1992 my family was poisoned by a new Lennox furnace. Carbon Monoxide for 8 months. Lost some brains, a little organ function and about a million in earnings. We didn't know we were being poisoned. Went through 20 Doctors, 2 hospitals, 8 engineers, four lawyers and 3 weeks of court before it was all over. I found incompetence and excuses at every level. Now I sit here daily with a good cigar, a couple of Baileys w/decaf, my faithful German Shepherd and a hand full of body/brain regenerators. I know there's a moral here somewhere. Oh yeah... a. Professionals, M.D., J.D.,Phd.,CPA., etc... will prove to be mediocre at best. Can you expect more from SOME penny stock traders? b. Anybody with half a brain, like me, can tell the diff between a straight Oak and a bunch of Twisted Roots posting in these threads. c. There are people who will try to take credit for a sunny day but will blame God for the rain. d. One simple word, like "whore" for example, can tell you what to expect from a person when the chips are down. e. Anybody who goes along with this type of mind set is of the same seed. f. Anybody, from a pure psychological point of view, that speaks negatively about a stock they don't own has got to have motives. And a weak home/social life and more than likely a small ding-ding. Have I rambled enough? Stick around, do what you do, read deeply between the lines and both you and your family and others will come out proud. Shoot1st...appreciating all of your past work.
