But keep grinding your ax, because that is what you do.

You bring it out when you act like your position and comments over the past few months erase comments of the past 4 years. Sally called you out, and you avoided the subject. Typical!

I addressed Sally’s ridiculous posts just like yours. The two, or one of you, really have nothing to say.

Snore. You bore me.

You guys on your barista break? Boss will want you on that triple latte so you better type fast.

You are a con man Ghost.

I could not respond because I was not registered. You claimed you had 85% in leveraged CDs last year and you had a crappy fund. CDs were returning less than 1% - and you had 85% of your investments in CDs and yet you claim a bogus return of like 7%. Plus your crappy fund. What a joke you are. And you always want to pick 2000 because the three years after that are terrible. What a sham you are. A charlatan.

Yet you continue to engage.

Again, here are your crappy CD returns versus the stock market ...

It is laughable that you would proclaim CDs as great investments when over the last 9 years they have provided negative real returns. Are you a carnival barker?

And you are an ignoramus. I also said I had a position that was short the market. Check the posts if you like.

So, your short position offset your 85% in leveraged CDs which returned under 1%??? To bring you a overall return of 7% or whatever you claimed? Do you know math Ghost. Do you know how well 15% of one return has to do to offset 85% of a dismal sub-1% return to bring the overall return to what you are claiming it did? Seriously?

What? Leveraged CDs? What in the hell is a levered CD? Also, CDs pretty much were above 2% last year. This morning I just bought a one year CD in my own account at 2.55%.

You need to check the bolts on brain box. Something has juggled loose.

Ghost - I was respectful for a long time. I knew you were spewing nonsense but kept my emotions in check but when you start calling me names, I will call you out.

Number 1 - You said you had 85% of your porftfolio leveraged CDs. You had one lackluster fund. You had a mysterious Short - whatever that may be. I was in energy futures so I know a heck of a lot more about that than you. Your lackluster 85% CDs returned less than 1% YET you want us to believe your portfolio returned overall much much better than that - like 7 or 8%. That is crazy. You just are making crap up. You have been called.

It has been well established here previously that Igy does not possess strong math skills.

You are the one who said you had 85% in leveraged CDs. You are the one! And now you don't even know what that is? You are a fraud Ghost. I am sorry I ever engaged you. I was a fool. You are a fraud.

Your investment strategy over the past several years has not been unlike many. Up until a few months ago, it has not been sound. No sense looking back with anger.
