Set forth below is the text of a comment that I recently posted to the discussion thread for another blog entry at this site:
I would hate to not have much left of a nest egg, versus having a large nest egg that might have to weather a short term loss.
Speaking just of the nest egg, I would agree with you.
The issue here has been whether I am willing to tell my friends things about stock investing that I do not believe in order to appease you Goons or whether I am willing to pay the financial price that you impose on those who post honestly. I prefer to pay the financial price. I don’t like it. But this way I can live with myself. I kept my mouth shut re the error in the Greaney retirement study for three years because I feared what you would do to me if I “crossed” you. I did not feel good about myself in those days.
I have paid a financial price for my honesty. But now I feel good about myself as a person. And I believe that I will see big financial rewards too down the road a piece. But we will have to wait a bit to see how things play out re that one.
I wish you all good things, in any event. I hope that that helps at least a tiny bit.
