The Level of Financial Sophistication of Some of This Site's Participants Is Remarkable. But Do You Read the Forums?

I rarely get a cancellation from anyone who has ever asked a question on a forum. The few exceptions are almost always highly aggressive people who have used the forums as a soapbox. They always cancel. They had an agenda, and this site did not meet it.

I am amazed at the level of expertise that some members have. Other members can get specific technical information on these forums.

Yet the majority of site members do not ask a question. The overwhelming number of those who cancel never asked a question.

I promote this site as a place where you can get specific questions answered. I know of few membership sites like it, other than Membergate sites.

People spend hundreds of dollars a year to receive newsletters sent by second-class mail. Yet these same people don't take advantage of the expertise available on this site within hours.

I want you to benefit. So, I encourage you to ask a question every once in a while -- and answer a few.

Monitor any forum that interests you. Become more active. You will get your money's worth from this site if you do.
