Good morning LC, Re: Greatest Compliments.................

It is said that one of the greatest compliments we can receive is Plagiarism!

About 13 years ago I struggled with this same sort of thing. An investment advisor in Florida liked my AIM web site so well, he copied much of it (including the i-Wave database) and told clients it was his own secret sauce for money management.

I don't know how long he'd been using it before it came to my attention. In handouts to clients he'd not even bothered to notice the AIM-Users.com web address at the bottom of each page he'd printed from my site! That's how I learned about it. Someone contacted me and asked what my relationship was with that fellow in FL.

It's amazing what happens sometimes with stuff we put up in the Public Domain for the benefit of All.

It's interesting to me that the fellow in your case worked on setting up a non-English site and used your stuff. I wonder if there's other advisors in non-English countries that may have "borrowed" from me, too!

Best regards,
