“Unfortunately, There Is a Feeling Among Some Buy-and-Holders That They Will Not Be Perceived as Super Duper Experts If People Come to Learn That They Didn’t Always Know It All. “

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

You are always the victim, aren’t you Rob.  The whole world has orchestrated a mass conspiracy against you and even your ex-wife is in on this scheme.  Poor Rob.

We are all victims of this massive act of financial fraud, Anonymous. We all would be living richer and freer and happier and better lives if every site on the internet had been opened to honest posting re the peer-reviewed research in this field on May 13, 2002, as I proposed at the time. I is not possible for the Rational human mind to imagine any possible downside, I mean, come on.

Learning is this world one true free lunch. There was a time when we didn’t know all that we needed to know to invest in stocks successfully for the long run. Now we do. Shiller was awarded a Nobel prize for his research because it represented such a huge advance over what came before. Unfortunately, there is a feeling among some Buy-and-Holders that they will not be perceived as super duper experts if people come to learn that they didn’t always know it all. Well, they didn’t. I don’t think that the mistake they made was that big a deal. But the cover-up of the mistake has hurt millions of people and hurts more each day that it continues. We all need to pull together and insist that every site be opened to honest posting re the peer-reviewed research so that we can all move forward together into a better tomorrow.

Where I’m coming from.
