Now if the interviewer is a guy, then its Cameron Diaz in a low cut miniskirt who sits next to our Q guy, and...well, you get the idea. All this talk about PR doesn't sit well with me. One does not become wealthy by a little spin, polish or sex. Wealth is achieved by investing in companies that undergo fantastic earnings increases over a multiple year period. That is the kind of wealth that will be with you to use when it is desired. Sure spin may pump up the price a little but the effect is limited over time. Spin does not create a ten bagger out of a five. For the senior citizens on this thread that are ready to cash out even though the best is yet to come, or those in dire financial straights who need to cash out, yes, you would be better off if the Q PR had that last bit of polish and spin and if they had it now. I trust the polish will be fully matured when I need it. For the rest of us, I just don't think it matters. I will take an excellent company lacking polish over a good company with the best spin any day. Bux
