Our member, "Honeyonoehone," moderates the discussion forum "Honey's Bob Brinker Beehive Buzz 2." She set the terms for participation in her first post in the original forum reprinted below.
We have another Bob Brinker forum here:
Please read both forums to get all sides of the issues from several perspectives.

Bob Brinker promotes himself to the public as a “market timer.” Many people who listen to his radio program trust him and make life-altering financial decisions based on what he recommends. Therefore, it is proper to question the validity of Brinker’s self-proclaimed market-timing abilities. It is fair, even desirable to ask: Where, when and how has Bob Brinker been duplicitous?
While Bob Brinker has many devoted fans, there are others who have honest complaints about his advice record. There are those who believe that Brinker's past record is less than exemplary. There are those who are aware that some of Brinker’s biggest blunders are not transparent to recent Bob Brinker’s Marketimer subscribers or radio listeners--there are those who believe that this is the result of deliberate cover-ups.
This thread will be an informal forum, designed to present much needed transparency to Bob Brinker’s record. It will tell “the rest of the story” which is not heard on the air or read in Brinker's Market Timer.
Some of our favorite subjects for discussion will be:
- Anything Brinker talks about on his radio program.
- His history of marketiming recommendations.
- All of his past and present investment advice.
- His past and present stock recommendations.
- What he said when he posted as “donlane/mistertopes.”
- His outlook for the future of the markets and the economy.
You can also look forward to the “Best of Will L.” I will be archiving many of his posts here for you. Will is one of the most knowledgeable and prolific Bob Brinker critics, and he is an entertaining and very informative writer.
All are welcome, even encouraged, to join in the discussions and try to poke holes in any arguments I post here (I want to be fair and balanced), but we must follow the Suite 101 TOS rules.
Links to other sites that do not allow me to post links back to quotes at this site will not be posted here.
