Insults? Really tw, how can you be insulted by words on a screen? I'd expect an adult wouldn't be insulted, if only they could discuss a factual issue without emotion. Silly little muppet. I apologize for hurting your feelings. I had no idea you were so sensitive. Is there really a scared little boy under that vulcan charade? my oh my.

But back to the subject. TW assertions - many. Lookout's requests for evidence - many. TW's sources provided - 0. TW's BS factor - off the chart.

Don't cry little muppet, you still have your Popular Mechanics collection to comfort you. And remember, soon there will be a new discussion here that you can drop an encyclopedic post on. Oh think of the possibilities... there are probably hundreds, if not thousands of future threads just waiting for your winning debate tactics. How exciting. Sad, sad muppet.

You know, muppet, I feel bad. You're going to waste your whole night googling to find support for your claims. I don't want you to take that much time away from your knitting so I'll just make it easy for you.

If your claim is that 75-80% of mutual funds underperform the market in a typical year - you are correct. But do you have the curiosity to wonder what that means? Do you have the intellectual honesty to post the reasons if you have, in fact, researched to find out?

If your claim is that financial advisors underperform the market by 1%. You are partially correct. Care to explain what that number signifies?

It's up to you big boy, I've done half your work for you. Now it's time to prove your honesty. To ignore the challenge before you or to show some honesty and post information brings the truth to shine on your claims. Such a conundrum, my little muppet.

Well then lets talk about your intelligence. It was so low that you supported the mental midget president and adovcated the massacre of American soldiers in a war justified by lies. Clearly only one with an enlarged anus would have been friends with someone who even disposed of voter registration applications. But then intelligence is not found in stock brokers who make money by lying.

Of couse I never posted any of that before because that would be insulting and irrelevant. But since you have lowered the threshold to make personal attacks acceptable, then let's talk abut your wife ... oh, she left you. Why? Please explain why she could not longer put up with you. Clearly these discussion are now acceptable since accusations without foundation are the new standard.

Sorry, I don't have a long list of four letter insults to direct at you. I have little practice at profanity. Please read some previous yesman065 posts and consider them directed at you. (yesman065 - I now find this funny.)

Or maybe you want to stop personalizing and deal with the issue - that stock brokers tend to underperform the market. Strange how you don't put up a weighted average of all mutual funds (not including indexed ones) compared to the S&P 500. Then you could fill the Cellar with facts instead of your emotions.

Meanwhile, mutual funds (those where stock brokers make the decisions - not index funds) tend to underperform the market.

I don't say ignore the brokers or analysts. I say listen extensively to them - to find the few who actually know what they are talking about. Even the lesser ones sometimes through out a useful gem. Ignore them all only if letting a stock broker do the investing. Of course none of those previous posts said anything about lookout123. How curious he took vast emotional insult at what is only an industry trend. Funny that he replies with emotion rather than numbers - which he more than anyone else has most access to.
