Thread: 2008 Winners! - Final 2008 Tally

    Default 2008 Winners! - Final 2008 Tally

    The final 2008 numbers are in and wow! - we had some great returns.

    Poolman's +19.26% is an amazing accomplishment for 2008.

    wv-girl and 2Easy both beat all of the funds. Greg was close.

    Super job!



    I will be offering prizes to the top 12, who all had a positive return for the full year.

    Top 5: Poolman, wv-girl, 2Easy, Greg, and Rod

    - I have a few golf shirts, sweatshirts, a few long sleeve T's, signed hardcover copies of Revshark's book, "Invest Like a Shark".

    Please choose one of the above. I'll need shirt sizes, although the golf and sweat shirts are not available in all sizes but I will see what I can do to get do. PM me the info.

    Then I will throw in a few other things like a T-shirt, travel mug, planner, etc.

    #6 thru #12

    I will send your choice of anything on the prize list. Don't forget to send me your shipping info and shirt size if applicable.

    We also had some nice returns from those who were not tracked for the full year. Because the year got off to such a bad start, it was not a fair comparison to put these members on the leaders list, but I wanted point out a few who are worthy of a mention.

    You six can also give me your choice of something on the prize list. Don't forget to send me your shipping info and shirt size if applicable.

    Please PM me your choice and your shipping information (even if you've sent it before).

    Again, if you decide to take a T-Shirt, please let me know your size.

    Nice job everyone, and good luck in 2009!

    I am so sorry safetyguy. I must have accidentally stripped your name off when I took the G and F funds out of the list. I will fix that right now. Great job!

    Cool!

    All prizes have now been sent except for a couple of sweatshirt requests as I had to order more to get the sizes needed. Those members know who they are.

    If any other winners don't get their prizes by next week, let me know.

    Thanks!
