who gravitate toward deep-discount brokers.)>>

A short note to new or potential investors who want to investigate the
possibility of significantly shortening the path described in the above
"theory"; check out the Motley Fools whose clear tutelage quickly brought me
(a LOW-net worth and market-UNsavvy individual) through the advice-needed
stage without the costly and dubious aid of a full service broker. Since
discovering the Fools in Nov96, I have been successfully handling my own
investing online with Discover (nee Lombard) at discount rates. Now when you
hear that word "successfully", bear in mind that virtually any idiot in the
market only since Nov96 would probably have done well. You want to prepare
yourself to survive in an unfriendly market. So I know you all are busy but
take time to visit www.fool.com; and No, I don't work for the Fools nor for
Discover - I'm unemployeed and looking.
