This guy amazes me. he has no grasp on what the housing bubble is and wher ethe bubbles are. "KRB proves there is no bubble". Oh brother ....

I jsut feel sorry for a friend at work who folows this guys advice. Well, sad for him because he's about 45 and has been an ivnestor since 18. I know he has money, but why someone as seasoned as him listens to this fool is beyond me.

I tried explaining to my friend how he pulls on emotional strings to make you watch and do what he says. better arguemnt than the prevfious sentence, but that's the cliff notes.

Yeah, taking stock advice from a hyperactive monkey who flings crap around the studio, and likes to yell so people take notice of him. You're better off going into a daycare center and asking the A.D.H.D. kids what you should blow your money on. At least you'll get an innocent answer.

No, I stick with mutual funds so I can spend close to zero time on my investments.

VFINX: buy, hold for 30 years, profit!
