Mr. James Stewart,

Any spur of the moment investment, especially if made based on emotion, will be the initial ingredients in a recipe for financial disaster!

I have seen first hand literally hundreds of investors let go of their life savings for promises of a high return on a high risk investment. If you don't have it to loose, don't invest it.

Mr. Stewart, I have a story that will leave your readers with their mouths hanging open. It will be the most talked about subject at water coolers across the nation.

Please contact me - or have one of your staff get in touch with me. The details of this investment fraud / scam needs to be told to your readers. Victims must come forward and others need to be warned!

Please contact me ASAP!

Well I bought in and Added back into my Funds I have had since 99' and Did well in the last bare..
back in early March

This brought my Ave cost Per Share down quite a bit adn now with the recovery I'm pretty close to being even in my Equities..

Thanks Jim..! Been Buying More Riets and Small Caps.. What do you think of buying GM After it Goes Bankrupt?

I've got enouhg Into Equties (25% ) and just adding any new $ into my Bonds..If the Equities Double in the next yr or so, it will do better than after the last recovery in 03' and 04' and that was a Record for me then..

guess Just getting complacent and having More than enough $ now in my older age..No reason to get Greedy anymore..

However, I did take out $10,000 and set up a Seperate Port to invest Into Equities/stocks Like Jim Said to buy and eventually , if it has any $ in it, when the time comes, it will go to our towns Museum and our Veterans Cemetary..
