“If Get Rich Quick/Buy-and-Hold Were a Real Thing, No One Would Ever Suffer Any Financial Penalty for Pointing Out the Errors in Buy-and-Hold Retirement Studies. If Get Rich Quick/Buy-and-Hold Were a Real Thing, Buy-and-Holders Would ENCOURAGE People to Ask Questions About the Methodoligies Used in Their Studies.”

Set forth below is the text of a comment that I recently posted to the discussion thread for another blog entry at this site:

Yet you are broke, divorced and have no friends………….and think you have conformed.  Nope.  Not even close.

I go to sleep at night knowing that I stood up for my fellow community members who were being taken in by the claims made in the Greaney retirement study. That’s something. That’s a lot. That’s everything. I wouldn’t trade in that feeling for all the money in the world.

If Get Rich Quick/Buy-and-Hold were a real thing, no one would ever suffer any financial penalty for pointing out the errors in Buy-and-Hold retirement studies. If Get Rich Quick/Buy-and-Hold were a real thing, Buy-and-Holders would ENCOURAGE people to ask questions about the methodoligies used in their studies. The fact that a good number of Buy-and-Holders don’t care about getting the numbers right in their retitement studies tells a tale that needs to be told far and wide.

People use retirement studies to plan retirements. I’ve seen it with my own eyes.
