Then why has it been proven that fund managers don't beat the market in the "long" run. Anybody can beat the market in a 1,3, 5 yr period, hell even a 10 year period, but not in the long run. Look at Heiko Thieme and the American Heritage fund. He was the darling of the street slaughtering the averages, now ................... John Ballen from MFS??????? one of the best averages in a ten year period for his emerging growth fund which regressed right back to the mean with the tech meltdown.

I'm not saying it can't be beat in shorter spurts, but in general, one is better off investing in low cost index funds or spyders.

You realize it is illegal to solicit US residents or citizens for investments in a hedge fund unless they are Accredited Investors or Accredited Institutional Investors.
You are violating US securities laws by attempting to sell unregistered securities.

I noticed that you made 300+ posts the line. How crafty, considering you have 332 posts. I bet if you were at 297 you would have made the line 250, right?
