It sounds good! At $6.99 used maybe it would educate us even better on how to make more green. BTW, Rod, I liked your plan and decided to lay low and safe for Thurs. You know how it can get after a big gain!

I probably won't lay low until Monday or Tuesday.:^

Glad I moved back to G 95%; may be the only one to actually make money today! Will see what tomorrow brings. As I said, I like your logic of Thursday does poorly, so move to G.:cool:

Rod, have you read it? Any good?

I bought that book earlier today at Border's. It's a basic how-to on investing in individual stocks. Doesn't mention anything on funds like we have in TSP. If your interested in investing in individual stocks, and know absolutely nothing about it, it's a good buy. Otherwise, not worth the money.......it talks about shorting and margins and stuff, but like I said, very basic. Won't help you in investing in funds. Doesn't even mentioned the indexes except to tell you what they invest in, small caps or large caps.

We do however agree on one thing, all market analysts and money managers suck. They are there to make money, at our expense.....

It's definately not a step by step to turn $33000 into $7000000 in 15 months. That may be how he did it,write a book, apparently it was on the New York Timesbest sellers list at one time.......I'm sure it wasn't there long........

Didn't check what year it was written, seemed like 1970........

Good luck,

Oh btw, that's how he ends the book, saying "good luck".........oops sorry, didn't mean to give it away......:P
