    Paul,

    I wanted to say that I think you have a good groove going since the Expo. You seem really energized and the shows have been great.

    I also wanted to mention that I think “Rescue” by Zach and Sarah is the perfect song for the 12 Steps. Nice pick.

    I would love to get involved with IFA and was excited when you mentioned they might reduce their minimum investment. Please be sure to let us know if they do!

    Do you think the book (Oh man, THE BOOK) is worth while even if I don’t have $100K to invest with them?

    Thanks again for the great work and the time you invest.

    Hi Paul,

    Thanks for another excellent show this week. Enjoyed the “Nine Tips for Investing in Happiness”. Does tip 9 mean we should be looking forward to getting old? 😉

    Have a good week.

    Kind regards
    Marie

    I hope IFA lowers the min so us young ones can get in.

    You want a comment? You got it! I say put Toyota Motors in place of GM. Cramer always talks about going for the best of breed so put the best of breed car company in place of the one you are taking out. Makes sense doesn’t it? Great show.

    Paul,

    Love the show. Went through withdrawl this past week. I am wondering, what can we do to help you whether it be clicking on ads or calling into the show? I think that several would like to show appreciation.

    Hi Paul,
    What did you decide to do with the Cramer portfolio stock pick?We’ll need to send in all new stock suggestions pretty soon because Cramer changes his mind so often – all our picks from last week may soon be outdated!

    yomomma, You know, I keep waiting for a pullback or some entry point… right? But it ain’t happening. Active trading is HARD!

  9. yomomma2000 October 24 2006 @ 10:20 pm

    You are so right, Paul. Maybe tomorrow the Federal Reserve will put a pall on the market and the stocks will fall.
    PS. Love your show!

    Comment. Perchance to interrupt the stillness of Cyberspace. Find time enough to take stock of the moment,As we search the index for the future.Oh Blessed returns!

  11. vancwa1 October 25 2006 @ 3:14 pm

    Paul- how about a show about a wish list for “Tools in the Crib”? I’m not talking about unrealistic tools like posting tomorrow’s newspaper today.

    BTW – what replaced GM?

  12. fu_fish October 25 2006 @ 8:35 pm

    Hi Paul. Looking forward to your next show. You should release it this Friday and call it a birthday present to me. 🙂

  13. MacYoda October 26 2006 @ 12:53 am

    Great shows… keep it up.

    I was lucky and bought Apple many years ago at $7 and Lockheed at $19 and have let it ride for over 20 plus years, re-investing all the dividends and loving all the splits. Lucky me.

    I think it is your show that created an earthquake here in Hawaii by rocking the boat on sooooo many analysts. Now you even have me thinking that I should be moving my profits from the above into an index fund. Should I???

    Aloha… MacYoda

    Paul,

    I just discovered your show while looking for info about Jim Cramer. I love it. I’ll be a regular listener from now on.

    Keep up the good work!

    Paul…..Love the show keep it up, hope I’m not too late for this week’s drawing.

  16. mrbassman October 27 2006 @ 8:53 pm

    This show is always at the top of my podcast list. Keep the music and the creative elements. On some shows they try to be creative and it takes away from the content. But not this show. You have always pulled it off with style.

  17. heidi59 October 27 2006 @ 10:44 pm

    Hey Paul…As usual, you really put a lot of energy and effort into the last show, we really appreciate it. I thought adding the Nine steps to happiness was appropriate especially for us traders, as we need to make time for our friends. With work, and trading, and chores, I know I don’t make enough time for my friends, and I always feel much better after visiting them. Also, thanks for the Guru of the Week, always enjoy hearing what the other experts believe. Keep up the good work, and hope you like your xBox, I’m keeping with Apple as my bull stock of the next 4 months.

    Best Regards,
    Heidi

    I love the show, I found it through Cramer’s podcast and became a fan. Great quality and a lot of fun.
    Thank you

    Love the show. Makes me think with a different perspective. Keep it up.

    Hi Paul,

    I have been out of town for the past 4 months and had the opportunity to download and transfer all the pdocasts to CD’s and listen to them all from my car and dinners in Small Town America.

    It became the voice in the midst that kept me grounded till I returned to safe and sane Las Vegas.

    Thank’s for all the work.

    I am increasingly amused every show I listen to. You really do a great job with the entertainment (and your own style of education). Right now and until I get through with all of you previous shows you are definitely my favorite podcast. Can you tell or explain a little bit of how you make the show, how long it takes, etc… You can point me to a previous show if you’ve already described it. Thanks for taking the time to do what you do…
