Is it necessary to be giving out portfolios from copyrighted material here that we are paying for and are not available to the general public. I would think You can make your point by discussing it in general terms.

Thomas you can see from my'profile that I too am'over the hill' and am a bit more conservative than I used to be (in investing). I still don't see how Vang Index 500 is NOT less risky and is NOT more diversified . I sure like the 1-3-5 and 10 yr growth 48%- 132%-181% and 439%. Personally I intend to go with Vang Index GROWTH . (VIGRX) and Torray (TORYX) Thanx for ideas. JWS

"I'm at an age where I can't afford high risk." I'm at an age where I can. Come on guys, give the Prof. a break. It's not like he insulted your wife or shot your dog. His brief ref. to the letter was only to forward a point. I made more money and got far more excitement trading penny silver stocks so far this year than I would have had my discretionary assets been shut up in Brinker's Portfolio II. Portfolio II--sounds like a hyperspace jump on Babylon V anyway so who's going to take it seriously? If the info is in a public library then what's the big deal. WHAT'S MORE LIKELY, some schmuck who doesn't want to pay for Brinker's letter is going to spend hard earned investment dollars to buy an Apple computer, update the memory, make a costly attempt to get online with a local provider which utterly fails to get its internet software to work on a Mac, put up with AOL busy signals and service disruptions for a year, have his modem blown out twice by lightning, render onto the SI webmistress what is the SI webmistress's, and spend countless hours lurking about on this thead to find out what's on Babylon V...er...in Portfolio II, OR go to the library and read the whole thing undisturbed and unperturbed?
