Default Re: funny johnny chan story

Not poker related, but the same premise:

I was told in an investments class by the prof. of a guy in the late 1980's who had an investment newsletter. He sent out thousands of them all over. On half of them, he predicted the market would go up, on the other half, he predicted the market would go down. After the next quarter, he got business from a ton of the people on the winning side and did the same thing. It worked for a couple quarters until i guess he was caught. Not sure if that is true either, but if so it is a nice scam.
