…and much more.

Sometimes it pays to be a contrarian and to take a contrarian’s advice. At other times, they know so little that they think that they know much more than they really do. Such is the case with the Beardstown Ladies (one of the examples you used in Big Bucks eBook Accelerator Session 3).
Just to set the record straight, this is excerpted from wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beardstown_ladies
“Founded in 1983, the group achieved fame for their stock market acumen, claiming investment returns of more than 23.4% per year from their inception through 1994… In 1998, an article in Chicago magazine asserted that the group’s stated returns had included the new investments made by its members, and that when computed in conventional fashion, their annual rate of return for 1984–1993 was actually 9.1%. This was considerably worse than the 14.9% return on the S&P 500 during the same period.”
Noted, Donald. Thanks for the clarification.
The point about being a contrarian still holds, though. You don’t HAVE to be a doctor to tell someone that diet and exercise will help you lose weight.
And there have been so many doctors giving this kind of advice, that it’s a bit refreshing if a fat high school kid tells you how he lost 40 pounds and started to date the prom queen.
Makes for a better story, doesn’t it?
Especially if you’re an overweight teenager.
