You have some good points there and I'm sure you're a nice guy.
However, I'll repeat what I said - anybody buying stocks MUST learn how to do their own DD and not listen to others. To not follow, at least those basic tenets, dooms them to failure in the markets. This equity market is not for lazy or lucky people. This is a hard business and you have to be sharp or you will lose your hinnie. If this was easy, there wouldn't be any cops, electicians, or postal workers.
The only other way out is to glom onto someone that knows what he's doing and follow them. I don't recommend that as the smart ones will tell you when to get in and not when to sell.
I'm not trying to be a jerk here, I want to see everybody succeed (except the shorts), I'm just stating the obvious - learn what you are doing. You should spend one hour per week, for each stock you hold, doing constant DD. Stay on top of it, things change
