Guest Editorial for Compound Stock Earnings

SPECIAL NOTE:

My wife and I will be traveling in Europe for the next several weeks. We will be having guest Editorials during this period. I am still submitting the CLIENT EMAILS portion of the Cow Report. Will return to writing the Editorial upon returning to the States.

Thanks,
Joseph R. Hooper

Given Joseph is still on vacation, Greg Beauchamp will write this week's editorial. Greg teaches the Compound Stock Earnings Monthly and Weekly Credit Spread Seminars and is also in change of our Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections Service. He has now been trading with Compound Stock Earnings for over six years and is a very valuable part of our team.

GUEST EDITORAL:

I am quite honored (and a bit afraid) to be asked to write this week’s “Joe Hooper Editorial.” I’m afraid because

a) I’m typically long-winded, and

b) I like to be funny, but I’m the only one who thinks I’m funny, so Joe will read this and think, “that’s dumb” and Aaron will have to explain to him that I’m trying to be funny, then, Joe will say, “well, it’s not funny,” and Aaron will explain to him that I’m never as funny as I think, and Joe will say, “remind me to never ask him again”... and

c) I never consider myself smart enough to teach a seminar, or run a platinum service, much less write an editorial on Joe’s behalf; and

d) I’m long-winded (and tend to repeat myself).

Rules-based trading is critically important. Rules-based trading was one of the critical aspects that brought me to Compound Stock Earnings. Rules-based trading is crucial for success. It takes emotion out of our decision-making process, and allows us to act with reason. It allows us to be ruthless traders, not blown here and there by emotions. Emotions are the primary cause of trading failure. We allow fear or greed to affect our decisions, and that effects our results (I did use affect and effect correctly – I looked it up so you don’t have to).

When you use the Compound Stock Earnings rules-based trading, you can rationally follow the rules. While there are subjective decisions to make, there are always rules to guide us. I’ve spoken to hundreds of clients over the past six years, and every one who loses money breaks the rules. Invariably, after a costly lesson on rule breaking, these clients get back to the rules and start producing the consistent returns that most of us regularly enjoy.

Speaking of emotions, I’ve found that I am a much better trader when emotions are held in check. That’s hard for me, because I’m an emotional person. I like to live big, and love big, and laugh hard. I even cry (there, I said it. I didn’t want to say it, but one look at any scene of Brian’s Song and I turn to a blubbering idiot (I know the idiot part is simple to believe)) (are you impressed that I keep track of open parenthesis?). As an emotional person, I have to be careful that I don’t trade with greed or fear. They are the two worst emotions any trader can have. Here’s what I do: first, I remember the rules, and make sure I follow them to the letter. Second, I remember that there are a lot of things more important than my trading results. My significance is NOT based on trading. I look at The Lovely (my wife of 21 years) and my three kids, and know that there are a lot of things more important than trading. When I have a great month, I don’t puff my chest and think I’m more special than I was. If I have a losing trade, I don’t take it personally. I move on, just as anyone would do in any business. At the end of the day, if I have my faith, and my family, and everyone is healthy, then life is good. And with that perspective, I have little greed nor fear in my trading.

Money is not the most important thing in life. I don’t want to get too philosophical here, and I’d feel much better if this were all only funny. Money is a tool to provide for the necessities in life for you and your family; and it is fun to have a bit extra for things you enjoy; and it can be used to make the world a better place.

To that end, I have to tell on Joseph Hooper. My daughter is 16 years old, and wanted to go this summer on a mission trip to Ghana. Some of you may wonder about the sanity of parents who would let their 16 year old daughter go to Ghana, but we believe a) there are precautions in place to keep her safe, and b) there are more dangerous places than that less than 10 miles from our home here, and c) she can see things in Ghana that she cannot see here, and can expand her worldview. She can see how people live in third-world countries, and she might gain a perspective on her life here. Besides that, she has a big heart, and wants to go help.

All of her friends started writing letters and sending them to everyone they know, to raise support for the trip. The trip costs $3,000. The funny thing is that we know we’re going to get letters from dozens of kids, and all those parents are all getting the same letters, so we’re paying for most of the trip by donating for each other’s kids, and they donate to ours (but that’s an aside). I told her that I wanted her to a) send out as many letter as she could, and b) to get a job at a local hamburger place where 50% of her pay would go to cover the cost, and c) I’d cover any shortages.

So Sarabeth wrote letters. Now Sarabeth is quite tenacious, and was determined to raise the entire amount herself, and wanted to send out more letters than anyone else. That means she asked me for my Rolodex to send letters to everyone.

Then she asked the question I had been dreading, “May I send letters to Joe and Aaron?” She has never met Joe or Aaron, but they are such a great part of our family’s life that my kids feel like they know Joe and Aaron, so it was a natural question. I said, “You can send one letter to them, and send it to the office.” She did.

Two days later, a courier came to the door with a hand-delivered envelope from CSE addressed to Sarabeth. When she opened the letter, she saw that Joe had written her a check for $3,000. He paid for the entire trip to Ghana!

Sarabeth first cried (she is her father’s daughter, and she is 16 years old). She then called all her friends (she is 16 years old). She then got all her friends together, and they had a Joe Hooper party. Joe, Aaron and CSE are the talk of the trip!

Joe and Aaron know that money can be used for a greater good. Because of their generosity, AIDS babies will be held, and orphans will be played with, and people with no food will be taken food, and Sarabeth will have an opportunity to make a difference (which is crucial in finding meaning in life). Sarabeth is scouting a location to dig a water well in the area, and when she returns, she’s already told me she is putting together a presentation to build a CSE well in Ghana for a community where they have to walk seven miles to fill their water jugs for the day. If she finds a worthwhile need, she’ll be eager to ask us to help with that cause. If that happens, I suspect you’ll hear from Sarabeth. You and I trade to make money, and if we use it correctly it can be used to make the world a better place. Thank you, Joe!

The cruise was great. There were aspects that will be improved, but the strength of the cruise was the ability to get to know each other, and visit with other traders, and get a glimpse of other CSE strategies and watch great traders do their thing in real-time. The Lovely and I are already excited about next year. I hope you will join us. We will be in Europe next year, and it will be great.

Speaking of Europe, Joe and his family are in Europe right now. They are there because Joe is committed to helping us all be more profitable traders. Over the last few months, European news from Greece and Portugal and Spain and the Euro have caused occasional havoc in the US market. Because Joe is so committed to us, he is there fixing the European crisis even as we speak. I have not heard one negative report since he got there! Way to go, Joe. Keep up the good work.

I spoke with Aaron today. I always appreciate his insight on trading – he always has something in the works, and I am excited about the future at Compound Stock Earnings. I am very thankful that Joe and Aaron have taught me a great skill, and thankful they continue to make it better. Aaron and I have a great surprise for the Masters, but you’ll have to attend to enjoy it. Trust me, it will be fun.

We’re in the midst of summer trading. It’s always wacky trading during the summer months, and this one is no different. We’re seeing wild swings up and down in the markets. That’s why we need rules. If you find trading difficult, you need a rules-based approach, and CSE is the best there is.

Now to some personal stuff: I reread my favorite fiction book this summer (for the 5th time – I read it every other year, just because it’s fantastic). If you’re looking for a good book (it’s the best fiction book ever written IMHO), try Jeffrey Archer’s As The Crow Flies. You’ll thank me. If you love that, then read Archer’s Kane and Abel. If you like that one, then read all the other Jeffrey Archer books. They are all great.

Let me wrap this up. I believe in rules-based trading and I am a father of a 16-year-old daughter. So, I’ve come up with 10 rules for anyone who wants to date Sarabeth. Here they are:

Rule One: You must have a GPA of 3.95 (on a scale of 1-4) or higher.
Rule Two: You must have never had a speeding ticket nor any traffic violation.
Rule Three: You must own a cell phone with a location-tracking capability which I can easily and constantly access.
Rule Four: You must wear a baseball glove on one hand and a hockey goalies glove on the other hand at all times when you are with my daughter.
Rule Five: Speaking of goalie equipment, you must wear a goalie’s mask at all times.
Rule Six: You must have her home prior to 9:00 p.m. – that’s my bed time and I don’t want to wait up longer than that.
Rule Seven: Prior to your first date, you must supply:
a. Driving Record
b. Financial Statement of you and your parents
c. Be gainfully employed at a job in which you work at least six of seven evenings per week. Rule Eight: You must ring the doorbell when you pick her up, and you better wait in the car out front until she’s in my house.
Rule Nine: You must pull up your pants, and never let anyone see your man panties.
Rule Ten: The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter:

  • Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a wooden stool.

  • Places where there are no parents, policemen, or nuns with eyesight.

  • Places where there is darkness.

  • Places where there is dancing, holding hands, or happiness.

  • Places where the ambient temperature is warm enough to induce my daughter to wear shorts or anything other than overalls, a sweater, and a goose down parka zipped up to her throat.

  • Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided.

  • Movies which feature chainsaws are okay.

  • Hockey games are okay.

  • Old folks homes are better.

    That’s it. Follow the rules, and your trading life will be better. It is why CSE is the finest investment education firm in the world, and why we are so successful. If the boys in our world follow the rules, they might survive, too.

Two Big New Additions to Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections!!! Compound Stock Earnings

Two Big New Additions to Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections!!!

We are very excited to announce two incredible new additions to our Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections Service!!!  

  1. A brand new Weekly Credit Spread technique, the Weekly Iron Butterfly, will now be taught through the service and selected positions will be emailed to clients each week.   

  2. 2010 Masters Class Presenter, Keith Frampton, who produced in excess of 550% returns in 2010 using Weekly Credit Spreads, has joined the Compound Stock Earnings team and will be providing his positions to subscribers on a weekly basis through the service!

Read on for more information!!!
 

Background on the Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections Service

The Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections service is designed for clients who want to trade just one, simple trade per week and produce returns in the 3 - 8% per month range.  The service is designed for folks who are either Ultra Conservative or Conservative investors and hold capital preservation among the highest of priorities.   The service is also ideal for folks who need immediate liquidity of their investment portfolio, as when trading using this technique, your account is 100% back in cash each week. 

This service is run by Greg Beauchamp who teaches the Compound Stock Earnings Monthly and Weekly Credit Spread seminars.    For more information on Greg, CLICK HERE to see an excerpt of Greg's 2008 Masters Class presentation and also, to see a sample of just ONE of Greg's many brokerage accounts showing over $1,000,000 in returns being generated using the Credit Spread technique in a year, see the attachment to this email.

The service provides an unprecedented level of Weekly Credit Spread education and trade selection.   Unlike Advanced Charting Platinum Selections, the actual trade selection, including strike price, expiration, execution price and portfolio allocation that Greg is executing in his own account is provided to subscribers.  Additionally, all subsequent management moves on all created positions are sent out to subscribers until the position is closed out.  As such very little "thinking" or "judgment" is required by subscribers if they choose to simply choose to mirror these trades in their own virtual account / real accounts.  Weekly Credit Spread Platinum subscribers receive trade emails once per week (only one position per week is created), can attend the weekly Coaching Webinar every Thursday at 11:00am CST and receive one or two "position update" webinars each week.  All webinars are archived for later, repeated viewing.

Today, we are announcing two new, very exiting additions to this service which are going to provide many more selected trades (more than one trade per week), more variety, higher investment levels and higher returns for our clients!

1.  New Weekly Iron Butterfly Technique

The new Compound Stock Earnings Weekly Iron Butterfly technique can be used in a weekly Credit Spread portfolio to increase returns and provide more trading opportunities for Conservative and Ultra Conservative Credit Spread traders seeking to generate returns of 2% to 5% per week.  The Iron Butterfly Technique is significant in that, with the traditional Weekly Credit Spread technique, there are some weeks (particularly during rising markets) where no Conservative weekly trade is available that meets our rules.    As such capital is not invested in certain weeks and returns are not made.  The Weekly Iron Butterfly technique solves this problem by adding a second technique that can be traded 52 weeks out of the year!  As such, CSE clients now have two weekly option strategies at their disposal:  the traditional Weekly Credit Spread technique and the new Iron Butterfly technique!

As with all CSE techniques, we have used the new Weekly Iron Butterfly technique for a considerable time and tested it's application in various market conditions.  We introduced the technique to a small group of six clients several months ago and these clients have averaged 5.6% per week using the new technique.  One month ago, we began providing Weekly Iron Butterfly selections in our Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections service!

At this point, this new Compound Stock Earnings technique will only be taught through the Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections service.  It will not be taught in our seminars.  For investors that are already familiar with any of the CSE techniques, the new Weekly Iron Butterfly technique is very simple to learn.  As with all CSE techniques, it is rule based with specific entry, management and exit points.   

If you wish to learn the new Weekly Iron Butterfly technique, receive selections by email of the Weekly Iron Butterfly and the Weekly Credit Spread positions that we are trading (both from Greg Beauchamp and also Keith Frampton) - you can sign up for Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections by CLICKING HERE.  Subscriptions to the Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selection service are normally $1,495 per month.  However, due to the introduction of this new technique, you can sign up for the service for just $495 for month one, $995 for month two and $1,495 thereafter (you may cancel at anytime during any month).  This is 50% the first two month's subscription price!!!   

This is great way to learn this new technique at a very low cost through a webinar format and also profit from the trades that are offered in the Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections service.  CLICK HERE to sign up for Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections.

2.  Keith Frampton Joins CSE and the Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections Service

2010 Masters Class Presenter, Keith Frampton, who is the owner of the single highest returns we have ever witnessed in a Credit Spread account (550% for 2010), has officially joined the CSE team.  Keith specializes in Weekly Credit Spreads and he will now be providing his trades each week to subscribers of Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections.  This is a huge new addition to the service!!!  Not only will there be Weekly Credit Spread Selections from Greg Beauchamp (whose positions are best described as "Ultra-Conservative"), there will also be Weekly Credit Spread Selections from Keith Frampton (who positions are best described as "Conservative" and provide the potential for higher returns).  As such, the number of new positions will be dramatically increased and the potential returns from the service will also be dramatically increased!!!

You can CLICK HERE to watch a 20 minute excerpt of Keith Frampton's exceptional presentation at the 2010 Masters Class Seminar. 

We want to officially welcome Keith Frampton to the Compound Stock Earnings team.  His contribution to the Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections service will be very significant and result in higher returns for all our clients.   This is yet another example of CSE's commitment to continuing to improve our techniques and services by leveraging the exceptional skills of our best clients.

The New and Improved Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections Service

As a result of the two new additions above, the Weekly Credit Spread Platinum Selections Service has now been dramatically improved: 

  1. Addition of the new Weekly Iron Butterfly technique which allows a Weekly Credit Spread trade to be made 52 weeks out of the year! 
  2. Addition of Keith Frampton to the team providing Conservative Weekly Credit Spread selections to clients each week!
  3. Continuation of the Ultra Conservative Weekly Credit Spread positions that are currently being provided by Greg Beauchamp!

What Is Happening This Week With Compound Stock Earnings?

Joseph Hooper Weekly Update For Compound Stock Earnings

..... well .... it seems that all we hear from street financial advisors these days that the way to retire is to save money .... reduce your living style .... put your wife to work (actually the only good thought they have) .... get a job and work till your 80 years old .. etc. etc.    ..... they have completely dismissed the concept of making more money or increasing returns on financial assets ....
.... fund money managers are in a complete frenzy for they cannot find any investments with returns of significance .....
.... as usual the financial industry is behind the door giving wrong advice at the wrong time .... as usual ...
... let’s look at some facts via excerpts from some published articles on the viability of reaching your retirement goals through saving .....

Compound Stock Earnings

Provided by Bloomberg:
“Bill Gross, who runs the world’s biggest bond fund at Pacific Investment Management Co., said investors may be at a disadvantage for as long as 15 years as the U.S. keeps borrowing rates low to reduce its debt burden.
“Savers are being disadvantaged” when compared with debtors, Gross said during an interview on Bloomberg Television’s “Surveillance Midday” with Tom Keene. “What policy makers are trying to do is rebalance this imbalance, in terms of too much debt and too attractive rates on savings. It’s basically called financial repression. We call it pocket picking.”

NEW YORK (AP) – “The safest corporate debt isn't looking so smart anymore.
“Companies deemed good for the money are raising trillions selling bonds to investors who can't seem to get enough of them. It looks like a great deal for both parties -- until you consider the details.

Some bonds are throwing off interest so puny that investors are already losing money to inflation. Others pay higher rates but won't return your money for more years than you're likely to live. Johnson & Johnson just sold $4.4 billion worth of debt with fixed rates as low as 0.7 percent, 2.5 percentage points less than inflation. The prospect of near-free money was so irresistible to Google Inc., it decided to sell $3 billion worth, even though it already had more than 10 times as much cash at its disposal. And Norfolk Southern Corp. convinced investors to lend it $400 million for 100 years.  "When companies start putting out 100-year bonds, you can bet we've hit lows," says Richard Lehmann, a Miami money manager with $100 million under management. He has largely shunned investment grade corporate bonds. "This market has gone from stupid to ridiculous.”

..... so what is left to do? .... ...... well, some of the greatest times in US history is coming upon us...

.... there are going to be fantastic opportunities to make millions .... Check out this thought from the Daily Ticker .....

“The world maybe headed for another recession, but there seems to be no better time to be a millionaire or billionaire.  Global wealth hit a record $121.8 trillion high in 2010 or $20 trillion above pre-recession levels, according to a new report by Boston Consulting Group (BCG). And, the number of millionaire households jumped 12.2 percent to about 12.5 million.  The trend will continue up to about $162 trillion by 2015, "driven by the performance of the capital markets and the growth of GDP in countries around the world. Wealth will grow fastest in emerging markets," says the report.  There are a couple of bright spots for all of you out there that do not fall in to the uber-rich category.  The United States is by far home to the most millionaires, according to BCG. In 2010, 5.2 million households in the U.S. had more than a million in assets under management compared to 1.5 million in Japan and 1.1 million in China.  And here's the really good news. If you want to make your millions, there is no better time than now, says Steve Siebold, author of the new book How Rich People Think. In the next five years, he predicts the United States will see more self-made millionaires emerge than in any other time in history. "This is the easiest time to become a millionaire in America than I have ever seen by far and I think the wealthy see that an that is why they are getting wealthier," he tells Aaron in the interview above. "But, on the other side, anyone has the chance to become a millionaire in America, more right now than ever before."  Why? Because this country has got lots of problems that are in dire need of solutions.

There are all these new ways to get rich, say Siebold. "There are so many new problems to solve. There are so many new opportunities that did not exist before the great recession."  Over the course of 27 years Siebold interviewed hundreds of millionaires and high net worth individuals. His book mixes the wisdom and advice of all these people who have created self-made fortunes.  Most people don't think like millionaires because we don't look at money in the right way, he says. We tend to learn about money at a very early age from people who don't have any. "We almost have no chance from the beginning because we are programmed by people that don't have any money and don't understand how to think about it," he says.

The Millionaire Mindset There are key differences between the way rich people look at money and the way the rest of us do, according to Siebold:
1.Wealthy people look at money in positive terms and as an opportunities where as most of us live in fear of being laid off or not having enough money for retirement.

2.Instead of worrying about running out of money, soon to be millionaires are thinking how to make more money. World-class performers are finding problems that are profitable to solve. They know that just because a solution hasn't been discovered yet doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

3.Millionaires tend to move towards what they want, rather than move away from what they don't want, which is what the masses most often do.

4.World-class thinkers have the guts to be optimistic right now in these shaky times and reject the middle-class cynicism that plagues the masses. It's not comfortable for a millionaire in the making to forge ahead when everyone around him or her is negative, cynical and unsupportive, yet the great ones push forward and are rewarded with riches for the rest of their lives.  Siebold's bottom line: "Take inventory of your consciousness and the way you think about money and ask yourself: Is this the way a rich person thinks or someone in the middle class thinks about money?"
... now .... Not too many of us are going to be inventors and such .... But we can invest in those companies when they go public and then practice our covered call/LEAPS/Credit Spreads/Momentum Trades etc. etc.....

.... in other words think like a winner and not a loser ..... ..... all the advice on how to retire is negative provided by
    The New York Times:

“Think of the last 10 pieces of personal finance advice you've read. Do any of these sound familiar?

• Cut back on lattes!
    • The world's top 10 coupons
    • Don't go on vacation this year!
If you boil all the advice down, there are just two ways to improve your financial situation: earn more or cut costs. So why don't more personal finance experts talk about earning more? Because most of them don't know how.”  Compound Stock Earnings

..... don’t think like a loser think like a winner ..... don’t let a loser handle your money ..... you handle you money ....

..... the sad fact is that “saving for retirement” is such a lame thought ....

.... If most folks had the discipline to save ... there would not be so many with no money .... it is just not going to happen....

..... so all the advice from the street types is just falling on deaf ears .... It is just a mental exercise that will never work .... but the street wants you to think it will

.... The only thing that works is using an investment strategy that allows you to start with a minimum investment ... like the CSE techniques .... about $10,000

.... and compound it over a short time ..... 10 years .....to grow into approx $3,500,000 .....

.... it is doable .... it is affordable .... it is human friendly .....It works and people will do it because they don’t have to live like paupers to save a small pittance to try to live on made possible on by denial and misery .....

... so go for it ... think right .... Don’t be poor or hang out with poor folks .... remember poor folks cannot help anybody... much less you....  Compound Stock Earnings

Joseph Hoopers Weekly Post For Compound Stock Earnings

Screen_shot_2011-05-30_at_10
..... Happy Memorial Day weekend!!!!!

..... well ..... Aaron and I conducted the Dallas 2-Day Intensive Seminar last weekend ..... it was a great Seminar with many new folks ..... many from Calif. and other states who had flown in for the seminar, even though they have a seminar in their home state... we had a large group ... over 250 on line also ......
.... one of the interesting things is that there were several folks there for the second time .... last month they attended the 2-Day Intensive Seminar in Dallas .... in each case ..... after attending just that first time .... they went home and the next week sold calls on existing stocks that had been hanging around in their portfolio for a long time just being non productive... just going up and down on paper ...... maybe a few dividends now and then....
..... in one case the gentleman sold calls on just one stock that more than paid the entire cost of the 2-Day Intensive Seminar .......
..... in another case the client had over 22,000 shares of stock that had been in his portfolio for 15 years or so ..... paying a dividend but otherwise just going up and down on a brokerage statement ..... well .... needless to day he collected lots of cash on that one ..... paid for lots of seminars in just one call sale .....
..... each time Aaron and I conduct the 2-Day Intensive Seminar we find ... among those attending ..... folks that are leaving extreme income and wealth on the table each month .... just leaving it ... many times to the tune of millions over the holding period .....
.... but now they know .....

.... we know there are so many others out there that have stocks and are not selling covered calls on those stocks ..... some are just not attuned to what goes on in the investment world and that is forgivable ....
.... others just are scared to do anything for they have been made investment losers by years of efforts by the “street” to make them think that investing is so difficult, mysterious and complicated that only the “ordained” ones on Wall St are qualified .....
.... now some of these folks will tow the line and follow the advice of the “ordained” one .... out of fear of some kind of retribution .... these are the folks that are doomed to investment hell and deserve to lose all their money... and given the experience of the street ... will most certainly do so ....

..... then there is the other investor that says enough is enough.... it’s over for these “street whores” (the official name for wall street types used by wall street folks to refer to other wall street people... I know because I worked on Wall St back before most reading this editorial were born) .... and these folks take control of their own money .......

.... serious.... it used to be .... and only as late as 10 years ago.... it was very difficult to be an independent investor doing your own trading ..... information was not available ..... if it was you had difficulty getting it .... you had to use the street broker ..... if you had the information ... you could not effectuate a trade ... you needed the street broker for that .....charts were difficult to come by .... you needed the street broker ...and so on and so on ......
.... as a result the typical investor was tethered to the whore ..... in most cases developing the classic symptoms of the Stockholm Syndrome (this is a term used to describe a paradoxical psychological phenomenon wherein hostages express empathy and have positive feelings towards their captors.).... I am not being flippant here, this psychological relationship exists to a certain degree between a financial advisor and a client... Why else would a rational person stay with a broker / financial planner who does nothing but lose them money?

...... this is still witnessed today when you see a group of brokers taking clients to lunch or dinner ..... the clients are so excited and have such a feeling of importance ..... when actually it is just a leading of the sheep to the slaughter house ....

.... anyhow ..... today there are on line brokers with fantastic information you can access on the internet .... in lots of cases many times better than the information a street broker has ..... you have cheap commissions vs. high street broker commissions ..... you can trade from anywhere ... you don’t have to go to the brokers office anymore .... you can execute every kind of variation of a trade that exists right at your computer .... in other words you are no longer “tethered” to the whore .....

.... with the “virtual” trading platforms available today ....from most on line brokers.... investors have the opportunity to use trading techniques without risking real money .... this is vital for this builds confidence and expertise for investors to learn how to manage their own assets they have worked for ......
..... last but not least you don’t need the thinking or advice of a street whore .... their advice and intellectual abilities have been proven without a doubt to be wrong ... witness that we .... the tax payers.... had to bail them out .... witness that vast numbers of the “babies” cannot retire because they spent their working lives depending on the whores to take care of them ..... it was fun ..... but whores are whores ...... it’s over now .....
..... as any aspiring investor now knows ... don’t hang around with whores ...... it’s bad for your investment health....  Compound Stock Earnings
