You are a stock broker. Lying is part of the job. I understand from where your bias comes. Meanwhile, your mutual fund recommendations were losers. Even UT's choice outperformed you recommendation. When you want to become civil again, let me know.
Stock brokers, typically, underperformed the market. But then I had advantages. I learned from history, Peter Lynch, The Economist, and a long list of other sources that all said same. I don't care that lookout123 hates it. Reality is not something you have to like. Reality is something that you should learn to accept.
Why does lookout123 dispute so many honest sources? Does he provide facts? Lookout123 - you are a stockbroker. A saleman selling Dr. Miles Restorative Tonic. You don't have to like it. But that is what finanical advisers do best - sales; not finanical analysis.
It was an old ABC News report. Two people apply for the same job. One clearly had a better resume, education, experience, etc. The other was better looking. Comments such as 'He even looks like a broker' choose the good looking applicant over a far more qualified, educated, and accomplished applicant. Stock brokers are most about image. Get over it. Stock brokers, on average, underperform the market. Brokers are too often about selling themselves. When cornered by reality, a meltdown? Get over it (or did you find a copy of the oldest thing in my refrigerator?)
