How Wall Street Has Failed the Individual Investor
"Long term you're looking at 9 to 11% pa "
" Cash and equivalents will leave you far behind in the race against inflation"
" A mutual fund is the best bet for the average investor and is bound to beat the limited skills and resources of any individual"
I have been a good dog and listened to all the bs.
I am now retiring with about 40% of the money I earned 1 hour at a time with my hands and head.
Mad ? I have never been so enraged.
People like me must stay clear of this game.
The will milk you throughout your working life and then till you die.

I'm feeling very pent up.

No-one will know when the real one shows up.
Punters will lose once again.
The profession will win as always.
If you worked for your money, stay out of it.
Dividends: There's No Such Thing as a Free Lunch on Wall Street
Dividends: There's No Such Thing as a Free Lunch on Wall Street
So long as your entry point and exit point are OK, they should add. If you are around retirement now , for example you are up the creek. The illusion of future growth is no good to you.
"diversification, diversification, diversification..........
Only this time no asset class is OK, except cash.
But what 'expert' is going to sell you cash?
Look , they just want you IN THE GAME to milk you dry throughout your working life and then until death do us part.
Those of us who earned our money the hard way, one hour at a time should no way be in this game.
Of Olympic Swimming Records and Investing in Today's Market
It was clear that a regular guy who earned his money one hour at a time should not swim in those waters, infested as they were by giant sharks taking your hard-won dinner.
Now it is patently obvious. An insured CD is already risky enough for me these days.
Bond Expert: Wednesday Outlook
What we are looking for is a bit of interpretation and useless speculation on future trends.
Markets Punish Dividend Cutters
So very little value to own without good dividends. Cutters in shipping and energy rightly lose half their value in a hurry.

Watch Peter Schiff: It Pays to Be Contrarian
This should be compulsory viewing for investors.
I hope Ben Stein and the rest , steering poeple into disastrous investments see it frequently.
In retrospect, , Peter should have put his clients in cash, not gold, commodities, foreign dividend payers, so that could now re-enter and clean up, but then he is selling stocks after all.
I wish i had listened to him and others such as Weiss, Rogers and Roubini and then cashed out 9 months ago
Is Hyperinflation on the Horizon?
Computers , models and algorithms have not helped at all.
All ( almost all) experts have been proved full of sh1t. Make the effort to see the video of the year featured on seeking alpha , from you-tube;-

The funniest thing is, these buffoons get paid big money to advise everyone and lose their savings for them.
As Schiff turned out to be right, and all the cnbc heads turned out to be total buffoons, I am tending to go with Schiffs hyper inflation scenario rearing its little head in late 2009. A view endorsed by a UBS adviser but only when the vino installs a little veritas in him. He wishes to remain anonymous.
My plan is, having lost 60% on my stocks in the last 9 months, I will switch to the calmer bond arena, there to lose another 60% when everyone sees the hyper inflation coming.
If there is any cash left after all that, inflation should have rendered it worthless and all my problems will be gone.
Farming is a bit tough for the seniors. I will probably become a financial advisor.
