CLEAR That
I DO THINK that EFTs Likely ARE theBEST WAY For MOST
But

LEAVERAGED ONES So MUCH

an EDGE Over
ACTIVE Investing

NEVER Any MUTUAL FUNDS
This AVERSION is IN My CHARACTER__I NEED to BE in TOTAL CONTROL and NOT
RELY ON or Be BEHOLDING to AnyOne to DO the JOB For ME
I Started My Decades Long INVESTING in Late 1979 IMMEDIATELY After Paying OFF
the One and Only Mortgage Ever Had.
Back THEN EveryOne HAD to DEAL With a FULL SERVICE Broker__And EVEN Though
I HAD INDICATED to NOT BE PESTERING Me With ANY Recommendations__They
STILL DID !!!!__And I Did NOT LIKE That At All !!!!
The ONLY Good Thing WAS that EVERY Stock I Bought CAME WITH a PAPER
Share Certificate__Usually Quite ARTSY__I STILL HAVE Some (Ones from the
Companies that Went BANKRUPT__LOL!!)
THUS When the FIRST Discount Broker SHOWED UP in the Early 80s__Marathon
Brown__I JUMPED IMMEDIATELY There__And EVER SINCE Have FREELY Made
ALL MY CHOICES Both GOOD and BAD.

You seem to be the only one who uses ,margin and your past posts have seemed you use it very judiciously.and it obviously has worked for you , but to be honest it scares me especially with still high interest rates. I would welcome any comments about my choices in sectors and you will notice l no longer hold any reits , healthcare or industrials other than CHE with along with DBM are each a 5 percent weight for me. Thankyou for your last reply , the one thing dispite our unfortunate differences of the last few years is you are nothing if not scrupulously honest when it comes to when it comes to your holdings good bad and indifferent. Any comments you may make will be considered in a serious manner.Finally as you and TB and Stormy are big div investors l have to wonder why there does not seem to be any ETF participation in your portfolios. It's also a shame that the old days are no more , that l also regret. .
