Description ▲
In the first three years of the new Millennium, investors lost over 7 trillion dollars* in the U.S. Market. This represented real money that Americans had entrusted to their brokers and financial consultants. This is money they desperately needed to fulfill their life dreams of retirement and financial security.The media panders to the public with magazine covers that titillate and tantalize the human psyche with a voyeuristic rush. With little or no regard to the investing decisions and behaviors their financial pornography will stimulate, they obscenely hook into the human instincts of fear and greed. These contemptible acts are made all the more deplorable as these abuses are nakedly paraded in front of the prurient investor as reliable analysis and advice.The drive that Wall Street so profusely spews at the retail investor creates the unfair and dishonest illusion that if you study their research, you will surely achieve superior returns. The problems and secrets that large broker dealers have fought so diligently to hide are now coming to light. The financial community's reputation has been greatly tarnished by scandals, abuses and conflicts of interest.
