Q.....
Hi! I have not talked with you for a while but have been browsing the
threads on silicon investor. Say hello to Linda Kaplan as I do not have her email.It was her posting somewhere that got me in touch with you folks. I am unable to communicate with you on Si investor as you have to be a member and I ma thinking through whther it is worth the bucks to join...I do read the postings however.
By the way, where do you trade? I have been using Ameritrade (used to be Aufhauser)...I get unlimited trades (mx of 20 trades per month) for a year for $800. ...there is a $8 charges for quantities less than 100 shares I believe.

Hi again J.B.,
I'll let Linda K. know you are in the neighborhood!
Presently I'm using Waterhouse's WebBroker and an old friend that's a broker. He's been handling more than half my account for a decade and acts as a discounter for me. His rates aren't as cheap as most of the deep discounters, but he understands my methods. He's also a baptized AIM user now as well! He not only uses it for his own account, but for selected other clients. This is starting to bring him more business. He doesn't tell them how he "times" the market, but is very good at suggesting that people lighten up near market tops and add shares near market bottoms. Funny how that works!!

You can alway keep in touch with email, if you aren't interested in anything more than browsing SI. So far SI has been a good second home for us. We used to gather on Prodigy's Money Talk BBs but that looked like it was nearing the end of its useful life.

Best regards, Tom
