- Well, gee. If he was going to buy it every day, don't you think it
- would be cheaper to get a subscription and get the 20% (or whatever it is
- they offer) discount. Now, if he wanted to try it out, they probably even
- have a money back deal if he didn't like it. Or you can go the library and
- read it for a couple of days.
- Now, back to the original subject... a guy from Lynch that I talked to
- a couple of months ago said that he thought the Journal was the best overall
- thing to have because it covers all the news that a "business" person needs.
- He then went on to say that IBD is a very good individual "stock pickers"
- paper. They seem to cover all the news on all the stocks, and present it
- to you in very usable way. So I guess the question is: Do you do enough
- stock picking to justify getting the IBD? You decide.
