While I completely disagree with you regarding the value of brokers, your comments relative to the deportment of some posters on FR is spot on! From my experiences here, I have found that FR has it’s share of morons who are so imbued with the “correctness” of own positions that when confronted with an idea that goes counter to their thinking, they resort to name calling. I guess in a group that’s as large as FR there are going to be some mental midgets.

“I guess in a group that’s as large as FR there are going to be some mental midgets.”

Hmmmm... maybe Brownsfan’s Law has some merit? :)

In a rational discussion, I would offer that I was thinking stock broker, not financial broker. I’d further admit that I am unfamiliar with all that financial brokers do, so I’m unqualified to comment on them. Stock brokers, I know a bit more about them. And finally, I’d admit that most jobs are better than nothing, except class action lawyers.

That’s all assuming a rational discussion. It used to happen on FR, not very much anymore. It’s more of a food fight now. I’ve learned a lot here in the past. Sadly, not so much recently, and I’ll expect more zings than anything else for this post. I wonder how that translates to the GOP as a whole? Hmmmmmm.

BTW, 63 and 87 Vette? I had an 87 I sold last year, I miss it, but it was killing me on repairs! Might pull the trigger for a C5 this spring, if the economy doesn’t tank even further.

So, are you one of the "morons", or the"mental midgets"?
