Thanks for explains trout I think I get it now.
so it is a low return plan with the high risk inherit in futures trading. Makes sense.
What king of return does the broker ....er.. Teacher get? Cost of the plan and of course hopefully open the account with said broker... Er .....teacher
And surely that 6-7k account can get the diversification the funds can offer with "the system"
But of course the fund management fees and income cut are much easier to criticize than the slow bleed of commsions that are a multiple of the returns for the "average account"
cant wait for the article--- I am rolling my pant legs up now!
but I do not have anything to peddle or gain like the self appointed blue collar comrade.

AND the Cubs are getting better but snake oil is still snake oil!

And before you put all the lipstick on this pig I thought the trout plan was just fishy!
Now I see it resides in the bottom of the aquarium.
