Sentiment Survey

I think the survey results should be posted for public access. We contribute our opinion to the survey; therefore we should have access to the survey results. However, I have no problem with Tom charging for the SS signals. Why shouldn't he receive compensation for a system he developed and runs every week?

I recently changed my allocation strategy to include a portion of my TSP based on the SS signal. I don't think $20/mo is much to pay for a service that may help your account grow by more the $250/yr.
 
I was kidding about the mug!
We know....

Is it possible some don't understand the SS is only one of several investment avenues? That that the rest of the board information is free to anyone... That the only loss will be if you have been using the SS exclusively and don't feel that fee can be added to an already stretched spending plan. Otherwise, keep reading the posts, the blogs, and have a nice Labor Day Weekend...:rolleyes:
 
Dear Lord, please don't let the Sentiment Survey lose money in it's first year of being a fee based service. Amen

There, curse broken. Oh wait, I haven't lost money since I started. What curse? Oh yeah, I'm lagging buying and holding this year. Must be a 3rd year curse. :laugh: Irregardless, good luck Tom!
 
In the old days I would walk a mile for a camel - I gave up smoking when I was in Vietnam and never went back.
When I turned 18, I put on my t-shirt and walked into one store to buy a pack. Outside, I pulled one out of the pack and put it behind one ear and rolled the pack up my t-shirt sleeve. I was cool! A friend spotted me and asked me for a sig. I givem one. He lighted up and asked me if I wanted a light. I said sure and took my first draw and also choked. I quit smoking on the spot.
 
I just subscribed.

Tom - Will you be offering a 1 year subscription?



disgusting. takes free input/info and then sells the results. if everybody who provides the free info signed up to pay, that's about 90k per month he makes for free info provided by the people. based on his numbers of 5k people giving FREE input to the system. the other premium systems are not based on free info from the board members.
tricks 5k persons into a system that wouldn't even be there except for the FREE input of the people and then charges them for the free info cause the results turned out so good FROM THE FREE INFO that allowed the SYSTEM to work.
Am I the only who sees a problem with this? I guess not, the sheeple are paying. Flame Suit ON!
 
Hey Valkrie. I'll put you down for a no. Don't get so excited. Last week 404 people took the survey (not 5000). The service not just the survey results / system anyway, but your white hot frenzy probably won't let you acknowledge that.

You could always ask Tom for your money back from the system you have today.....

Hey tsptalk, did any of those users collect, collate, backtest, and present that data on their website? Didn't think so.

As I previously stated. I think the results should be posted (which will be); however, I have no problem posting the analysis/signals in a premium area. This is consistent with any other internet "poll".

So are you including your own 2.5 posts per month in the vast array of free info being accumulated, or are you just mad because you won't have free access to everyone else's work from now on?

Yeah, I really don't undertand that reaction or mindset. If more people felt that way, I'd rethink it but so far I'm not getting that. Plus the results of the poll are still posted for everybody to see?

I know V doesn't understand the time and money that goes into this website to keep it running. Did I mention that I also have to pay monthly for the poll software, and the email service to send it out?

The problem I have with this is that I went into this because it was presented as a free service and was not interested in any premium service. I don't remember reading anything that this could turn into a premium service and was only interested because of the openness, and the group effort feel to it. I liked the idea that there was no one to blame if things didn't turn out well. It doesn't sit well with me knowing someone is sitting pretty wile I'm in the hot seat. This is just me talking and realize Tom has worked long and hard on this but I've always felt that the SS was the carrot on a stick to try to get us into one of the premium services. Right now consider me out, sadly. I wish the loyal followers of the SS would have been offered the same discount as those already in a different service. It seems the wrong people are being rewarded. I find it hard to believe that someone who was following the SS was also involved in a premium service. Peace and Prosperity
