I will no longer assist the irrelevant in their efforts to be seen as relevant

Just wondering

It may seem lame to you but that's because you understand very little of what takes place outside of your little bubble of self perceived enlightenment. By the way, is it safe to assume that your "mentally challenged" vocabulary intended to use the word "competition" rather than "completion"? Yes, you are so much smarter than the common folk who frequent this board.

My offer does not include money because my employment precludes that. You already know that so that is why you keep demanding it in order to avoid the issue.

My offer ( the original one based upon performance) stands as well.

Yes, and it provides me with a distinct advantage over those who are incapable of understanding the extent of their own intellect or lack thereof. Do you remember all of the polls in the presidential election that consisted of "very smart people"? Look up Nate Silver. He was allegedly the greatest oddsmaker going into November of 2016. The defunct Long Term Capital Management was being run by 4 Nobel Laureates before it had to be bailed out by a Wall Street Consortium- Read the book on it entitled " When Genius Failed"

My favorite contention of yours is : When I make investment recommendations to a client, I am simply a salesman. When you make investment recommendations to a committee, you are, somehow, not selling your thoughts and ideas. Talk about sounding smart!!!!!!

My original offer still stands I am of average intelligence. The advantage I have is that I know this.

diagnosed condition- self delusion solution- introspection

inability to comprehend is not a good trait for a "sophisticated money manager"

Once again, you simply don't know what you don't know

translation- he lacks the appropriate/approved credentials to manage your money in this state or any other one

You can take this to the bank. After 35 years in the investment business, there are considerably less things I dont understand that you don't understand.

Do you remember the Kavanaugh hearings? When hearings were concluded they wanted to wait a short period. AFter that short period, they said all of the claimants were not heard. It never ends.

Nope- Once again, my idea / my guidelines I understand you want unconstrained so you can introduce exotic products that everyone else cannot understand and, quite often, their values are not truly verifiable on a day to day basis. This will include only stocks and/or bonds ( which you should be able to do in your sleep since you are so smart) . By the way, when you make your recommendations to an investment committee, you are PRECISELY a salesman, so abandon that method of condescension and find another avenue. The best one would be to simply embarrass me in what I have proposed. Get it through your head that I am in a circumstance that makes betting on a social media site a no-no. Making me look very small on this site, I know, is much more rewarding than a few dollars for someone in your "position". This would be so easy for you to demonstrate your superiority.

Ok if your main concern is the length of time, you name the time frame and lets go. You keep saying you are smarter, ( just like any typical lefty) Why do you need money in this instance? After all, a guy like you undoubtedly makes vast sums of money, right? ( $1000 is very much a meaningless pittance to a man of your means) Do you want to make it 6 months or 3 months? I'm game. Sir, the only problem you have is you don't know what you don't know.

Yes he did because he was the last Dem leader who attempted to operate somewhere in the middle and knew he would be politically harmed if he didn't sign it.

Nope- It was my suggestion and you can accept or decline. You and I pick the stocks and we list a start date ( close of business on whatever date is selected) Everyone can see what is there and can monitor for their own edification. What is the concern about money? ( once again, I don't make bets on social media sites ) Isn't it a matter of principal with you? You have continually degraded my way of making a living and portrayed yourself as vastly superior. This is a quick, easily verifiable manner for you to walk the walk and show that to everyone here that you are trying to impress.

The investigations ( one or another or many) will continue all the way to the 2020 presidential elections. Whether or not there is good reason for it/them does NOT matter.

Then take me up on my hypothetical offer and embarrass me. It should be a complete no brainer for someone with your expertise. ( by the way, it doesnt take a mental giant to understand why I will not place a bet for money on a social media outlet)

Maybe Comey and Loretta Lynch are involved.

100% undeniable proof of what? If you have no securities licenses, from whence did your "expertise" originate? You are essentially telling me that although you are not a heart doctor, that I should let you operate on me because you studied biology in school and that you have a "certified coronary artery analyst" designation. Maybe we ought to try this. Maybe we should each create a hypothetical portfolio of 10 or 15 stocks and, for a one year period,( or perhaps several periods such as one year, 18 months, and 24 months using a composite average return of the three) see how they perform. Surely a sophisticated advisor such as yourself could easily outperform a guy who only "indexes mutual funds" The reason you deal with billions is because you are an employee of an organization whose 2 main benefactors made that possible. People are not running to you asking you to invest their money. By the way, recommending which manager to use for this sum or that sum is not particularly difficult. As an aside, NCS assisted me personally with the purchase of my first home many years ago. And one more thing, I often use a portfolio manager ( from the largest asset manager in the world)for some of my clients. He has NEVER picked an individual stock. He simply makes sector allocations and then his co-workers actually pick the individual assets to fill each sector. So, in one way, he "invests" many billions but has no say whatsoever in the individual issues. Lets do the hypothetical portfolio contest. Based on your claims, you will easily outperform the S&P 500 and I will substantially underperform it, thereby validating everything you claim about yourself and me. Then everyone will know how smart you are and how incompetent I am.

Fees are too high in vast, vast majority of Limited Partnerships. I will discuss the legal structure of Limited Partnerships with you after you answer the question you continually refuse to answer and you and I both know why. What securities licenses do you hold and in what states are you registered? So you ( yes specifically you) make investment decisions for people to the tune of billions? Or are you employed by, ostensibly, an institution that has large sums of money? Tell me how the second derivative plays into your approach to investing. [Hidden Content]

yea , right . I had no idea what a hedge fund is. And I didnt know it was an investment vehicle ( even though its name has the word FUND in it). This all began because I told you a great number of them have gone under and instead of responding to that, you start in with how smart you are and how little I know. I deal with hundreds of accredited investors and have dealt with many limited partnerships ( though I think they are a rip off) so it is useless for you to try this garbage with me. AS for "taking advantage of certain identifiable market opportunities" can you tell me which ones Long Term Capital Management ( with all of its Nobel Laureates) took advantage of? I know you will take a while to google this one. So take your time and try to come back with something more credible than canned definitions of hedge funds which nearly everyone already knows. Additionally, you failed to answer my question about how many securities licenses you hold and in how many states are you registered. But I get it, lots of employees for foundations don't have to have them.

He had a lot to work with as "no where to go but up" And if he is as smart as you think and is such an economic genius, the recovery ( which was going to happen regardless of who was president) would have been much stronger
