Wish list for the iPod Touch. Beckham’s injury. Presidential Candidate sells stocks. Short-term investing. Stock history. Philosophy jokes. It takes two to do the tax-loss Tango. Our tool helps you figure out how much you’d have after 10 years by saving $60 per month and investing in the market.
Why didn’t the Presidential Candidate buy the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index for her portfolio?
Sir Alex Ferguson says David Beckham won’t transform American soccer. I guess especially now that he is out for the rest of the season.
Will Apple’s iPod Touch be able to hook up to Skype to make free calls? I’d also like to see a password locker application for it. Check out 1passwd.com if you use a Mac.
The Barrons 400 index was recently announced. I’m not sure if I like it or not. They use a computer program to pick the 400 best US stocks out of the 5000 every six months. They say it has outperformed the Dow Jones, the S&P 500, and the Wilshire 5000. Yeah, but at what RISK? They will make their money off of licensing fees to ETF companies. Easy money!
Our Tool helps me figure out how much I’ll have in 10 years after I switch to Verizon FiOS for TV and long distance.
Mozzzie wants to know how to invest for the shorter term. RCS!

I’m planning to record show 77 on Thursday, 6 Sept. This past Labor Day weekend was full of events, school didn’t start for us until TODAY, and I can’t get any peace and quiet around the house, so show 77 is delayed. I’m eager to talk about this new Barrons 400 index on the next show. And of course, Beckham. I purchased a portable audio recorder today so I’ll be able to find my own peace and quiet! Stay subscribed and I’ll see you soon.
Investments and happiness. Two Tech Terror Tales. I’m going to watch Mad Money. A Tool to understand X-Ray Dogs. Tax-loss harvesting again. Gurus. Thomas Payne. Capitalism. Book giveaway.

Why would someone advise you to purchase an actively managed fund, even in small-cap or international stock? You gotta wonder?
Why would someone advise you to buy PUT OPTIONS on Apple stock after the iPhone comes out? Trying to hit the advisor home run?
Mutual Fund and Hedge Fund managers find it fun to use your money to play with. Are you funding their gambling addiction?
Why do active investors invest actively? Because they think they can beat the market. Studies have shown that they can’t. Those that get lucky enough to pick a winning stock get addicted and think they can do it again and again. They usually fail to compare their entire portfolios performance to a globally diversified benchmark.

I created a group at Facebook for the Mad Money Machine. The actual URL for it is HERE but the easiest way to pronounce it is “MadMoneyMachine.com/facebook” which redirects you there. I’m not really sure if creating a group is the best way to set it up. Should I have created an account called Mad Money Machine instead that a person could befriend? Or is it better to have group members like I’ve done? I also have a personal account at Facebook that I am keeping reserved for REAL FRIENDS, if you know what I mean.
