I certainly hear what you say about Goldman-Sachs... I am way too small a fish to be anything but bait in their "whale investor" environment. My IRA is managed by Janney, Montgomery,Scott by the same advisor I had for years at Dreyfus. The guy is just super. My other managed portfolio is placed with Sterling Capital and this is where I have refocused a lot of dollars to spread risk as I get older.

I actually made just south of 30% in 2012, much of it on mReits, with a blend of divvy returns and S/P appreciation. I am now out of mReits and will likely remain out as the concern for higher interest rates looms on the in flationary horizon. That was a great gravy train to ride for several years as the talking heads screamed "risky" and "avoid" while my portfolio about doubled in my contarian position. But all good things eventually come to an end, just like I sold the last of my Amazon which I held since $10.50/share; best buy-and-hold I ever made!

Hey, good luck on your trades. There are some Surgi-Center small caps spinning in the venture capital space. I'll e-mail you if I decide to latch onto any in the months ahead. One good one looks like an IPO late in 2013 with talented players at the helm. Keep you posted.
