Every twelvemonth I travel to the Money Show in
 Orlando, Florida.  Thousands attend.  It is mostly
 an aged crowd with the children about 40
 old age of age.  I have got got been saying for old age that
 until you have lost enough money trying to make
 a luck you will not go serious about
 investing.  The under 40s are shooting for the
 moon and it have finally dawned on the over 40s
 (maybe its the over 50s) that they must happen a
 better manner to get rich.
The Money Show shows a forum of
 recognized experts in their field.  It may be
 long-term or short term trading.  It could be in
 stocks, bonds, common fund, ETFs (Exchange
 Traded Funds), oil and gas properties, options,
 trade goods futures, managed accounts and other
 more than esoteric venues.
Each 1 of the experts allows you
 to listen to him talk (at no charge) to tell
 you how he have establish the secret to stock market
 success and why you should purchase his Holy Place Grail
 service.  You will have his (daily, weekly,
 monthly) market missive for the ridiculously low
 terms of from $250 to $5,000 or more.  You may
 not have got got got got establish the Holy Place Place Place Grail, but he has.
Almost all of them have a when to
 buy method, but very few have a when to cash
 in your chips method and fewer than that will
 have any manner to protect yourself from losing it
 all should their Holy Grail method bend into
 Holy Cow.
The Orlando show happens in February so every
 expert have his anticipations for the approaching year.  The lone bear I establish was Martin Weiss, but he
 wasnt A bull in 1999 either.  No 1 desires to
 hear desperate effects of a bad twelvemonth for their
 pillory so the audience is fed the sort of food
 they like.  Everything is going to be even better
 this old age and with my ace software (or
 newsletter) you will do a better tax return than
 ever before.
During the three twenty-four hours show there were 396
 person presentations most of which ran about
 an hr more or less and then there were the
 extra charges for having breakfast, lunch, tea,
 whatever with one of the speakers.  And these
 werent cheap.  You could also subscribe up for all
 twenty-four hours seminars.  In the Exhibit Hallway there was
 always an expert giving a public lecture with a great
 microscope slide show on how his Grail (I am getting
 hesitating about calling it Holy) will increase
 your portfolio.
Many investors came to see the guru whose market
 missive they were receiving.  Very few of these
 aces are making anyone rich, but there are
 some.  My inquiry to them is are they putting
 their ain money on the line or are these results
 hypothetical?
After attending respective of these seminars each
 twenty-four hours with each presenter screening his magic
 get-rich expression it would look these folks would
 travel home more baffled than when they came.  There
 is no Holy Place Grail of investing.  At least I have
 not establish it nor make I cognize anyone who has.  Do
 not trust on person else to make you rich. You
 have got to do it yourself.
The existent Holy Place Grail translates into
 two words  Hard Work.
