Silicon Valley Blogger presents >Best Online Stock Brokers For Cheap Stock Trades posted at >The Digerati Life, saying, “Thanks!”
Frank Vertin presents >Just Buy Index Funds Directly posted at >NO LOAD INDEX FUND, saying, “Buying an S&P 500 index fund through an investment counselor can substantially increase your initial purchasing costs and and drive up your annual management expense fees. Unfortunately, the vast majority of individual investors buy mutual funds and ETFs through brokers and investment advisers. Rarely do financial advisors recommend that you buy index funds with low fees. This is because low cost, no load mutual funds do not pay them as well as loaded, high fee mutual funds.”
Larry Russell presents >Most Individual Investors Are Poor Personal Portfolio Managers | Personal Investment Management posted at >THE SKILLED INVESTOR Blog, saying, “Investors more easily understand investment costs that are directly measurable, such as fees deducted on investment statements. However, many investors ignore or are unaware of the opportunity costs of their sub-optimal investment behaviors. Opportunity costs are usually much more difficult to measure directly, but these investment costs can be even higher than more visible investment fees.”
The Smarter Wallet presents >Technical Trading Indicators Predict That The Stock Market Rally Won’t Last posted at >The Smarter Wallet, saying, “Thanks!”

Jan Hendricks presents >Cooking by Broiling | Cooking by Roasting | Roasting Meat posted at >History of Cooking, saying, “Two conditions are necessary for good roasting - a clear bright fire and frequent basting. Next to boiling or stewing it is the most economical method of cooking. The meat at first should be placed close to a brisk fire for five minutes to coagulate the albumen. It should then be drawn back a short distance and roasted slowly.”
Ian Richardson presents >PPC Web Spy from Brad Callen (Keyword Elite), No Cost! posted at >Make Everything EzyAs123, saying, “A fantastic plug-in for Firefox which allows you to spy on your competing Adwords ads that appear in Google Search. Best part about this program is it’s free.”
Victor Schultz presents >St. Peters Basilica | Michaelangelos Pieta | Pictures of the Vatican City, Rome, Italy posted at >St. Peters Square, Vatican City, saying, “As you enter St. Peter’s Basilica, it is hard not to be awestruck by its vast size and sheer beauty. For example, as you walk in you will see some very large statutes to the side. While beautiful in their own right, I mention them as a reference point on the incredible size of the interior space. If you look up you will see writing and numbers that are carved into the upper wall just below the ceiling. While this text appears to be relatively small to the unaided eye, in fact the those carved letters and as tall as the large statutes you see to the sides as you enter.”
skillzson presents >Stowpid, Newscaster How Embarrassing posted at >Stowpid.
Jack Clifton presents >Refinishing a Redwood Deck posted at >How to Build a Deck, saying, “The problem with having a planter in the middle of a deck is that it completely chopped up the space and made the deck far less useful than it otherwise might have been. A six foot by six foot planter almost in the center of an otherwise flat wood deck that was about 20 feet by 28 feet in overall dimensions was little short of idiotic, but I guess that everything is in the eye of the beholder.”
