Yes I do I love to hear success stories -If you or anyone have one by gosh lets hear it!Why listen to beginners and lightweights. If you can separate the wheat from the chaff.Ipersonally would rather read about the Forbes 400 than the roster of the homeless at the John 316 mission.

Michelle - RE: Michelle, your opinion on software is wrong, I have made 15 million in software, how much are you worth
Money per se has little to do with someone's insight or the value of their opinions. Likewise expertise in one area of the business does not confer any magic in other areas. You are much more knowledgeable about ERP and supply chain software than I am, and if I were looking at an investment in that area I would certainly solicit your input.

And you are absolutely correct, a fat bank account does not improve your technical insight or industry knowledge, and does not in and of itself make your observations more valid. How one made that money might be relevant, however.

WBM apparently achieved his enviable financial status by investing and helping others with their investments. In that game, the scorecard is money. From that standpoint, his financial status is an important data point, and validates his future investment advice, in the same way that your successful work in the business validates your comments on that segment.
