Re: [ConservativeOptionStrategies] Gilbert's a vendor trolling for new business

 

My two cents - I personally am annoyed by Gilbert's posts. But I can't REALLY blame him for being off-topic. I am annoyed because I sense that he is exploiting the group that is assembled under the umbrella of Dr. Joe, and based on the generosity of Dr. Joe.


I also have "issues" with most guys selling advisory services. I GENERALLY trust my fellow trading students more than I trust the people selling services. This I have learned through experience. But Gilbert, if your service is going to be "educational" in nature, in that you TEACH PEOPLE how to do this on their own, then I applaud your approach.

But still, please Gilbert, please set up shop elsewhere and make a billion dollars over there, ok? It's just the tone is too RAH RAH for what this forum has been. If some of the members of this group follow your methods, and find them worthwhile, then I'm sure they naturally will report back to us that things are going well.

Gilbert, wouldn't you get upset if somebody came into your group with the same "good energy" and started recruiting your members to follow them into another new group? That's why this thing smells funny to me.

Best wishes & maximum profits to all.  In my peers I trust.

If he mounts a strong sales pitch, then let him go.

You have given him fair warning.

I've seen this before...someone hijacks a decent thread, offering to help others out with his own methods, but this fellow has all the markings of an aspiring vendor: offering to take on "limited" number of "students", been away from the public for a while and achieved great gains, writing with superlatives in capital letters "HUGE", etc.

Make no mistake, Gilbert's the only one who will make money over the long run....from the fees he charges.

Dr. Joe on the other hand has offered his methods and advice on investing with options portfolios for free for years. No, I'm not Dr. Joe, just someone who Dr. Joe offered to help out years ago, and I in turn offered to help moderate this group.

What say you? Shall I banish Gilbert to go find another group of willing guppies?
