Are 88% Of The People Wrong?
Last week I opened my cell phone bill and almost had a heart attack. I can’t believe how much money I’m spending every month to stay connected to family and friends. That prompted an informal poll… Maybe I could find a cheaper cell phone service… Walking around the office, I asked everyone what cell phone […]
Stuck In Traffic? How To Profit…
Yesterday morning I called my mom on my new mobile phone from Verizon. My parents are visiting Scottsdale in February, and we needed to discuss travel plans. Of course, mid-conversation the line goes dead. I’m sure you’ve had this problem too! I look at my phone and see there aren’t any bars. So, I do […]

Will This Eagle Fly?
I want you to think back to better times. Think back to 2005 and 2006. The real estate market was booming and the stock market was moving higher.

Of course, we had another heat wave hit the valley. The temperature was around 100 degrees. One of my responsibilities was feeding and caring for the […]
A Stock Tip From A Fortune Cookie
I have a passion for Chinese food. Ok, ok, it’s more of an addiction. I’ve always loved Chinese food. It’s always fun to eat using chop sticks. And I love trying new types of food. I was in heaven dining in Singapore. There, numerous cuisines all converge… its Chinese one day, Thai the next, then […]
A Revolutionary Healthcare Plan
I’m tired of the healthcare reform debate. I understand it’s an important issue but the whole thing seems to have broken down into partisan bickering. And what really bothers me is neither side is getting to the root cause of it all. I think skyrocketing health care costs can be attributed to Americans’ lifestyle. I […]
George Soros Is Buying This Stock… Should You?
I’m constantly looking for investment ideas. Every day I’m running fundamental stock screens, scanning charts, and devouring the financial news. It’s a full time job… fortunately for me, it is my job. In addition to the usual techniques, I also employ a less well known method for finding hidden gems. I keep an eye on […]
