I’ve been recommending this book to friends and family.

I wrote a review on Amazon.com.

Re: Should you vote?

I will not be voting because I view Obama and Romney to be practically identical.  I love Gary Johnson but he’ll only get about 1% of the vote so what's the point? I was recently watching watching this CSPAN discussion from Nov 1, 1996, and Harry Browne states he has not voted in 30 years.  http://w...

Does anyone here use a financial adviser?

A women I work with told me she was meeting with her "financial adviser" today.  That got me thinking.  Another reason why I love the PP is I don't need one.

Question - do any of you use the services of a financial adviser? And if so, what for?

Thanks.

Re: Gold Eagles/Buffalos safest coins to buy?

I only own Buffalos.  I prefer 24K pure gold.  I keep each in a plastic case so they stay scratch-free.

Re: Educating our Financial Planners

Thanks for sharing.  I have also noticed that many experienced folks in the investment world have never heard of the PP. I always inform people when the opportunity presents its self. My neighbor recently told me he’s starting to get into trading stocks. He said he hasn’t been doing very well.  So I...

Adding new money to PP versus rebalancing?

Instead of rebalancing, what if I just contribute new money to the underperforming assets to maintain balance?  Thus I would never sell an asset (until retirement), just accumulate more.

Is there any drawback to never selling an asset?

Thanks.
