Dear Stephen,
I would like to add my voice to the others here.
I have followed you since before TDL at TMF and you have, I believe, made a huge material difference to my life and standard of living. In that time I have enjoyed learning much, and earning much, in my early retirement. Even though I “lost” £20,000 in RBS shares I held my nerve because I believe in your methodology and my portfolio overall is still 50% up on capital and more importantly and to the point of course, I have had and continue to have a good income, even through the 2008 problems.
I shall look out for you “popping up” elsewhere – TDL is (was) the only financial publication I read but I know how to use google – because your no-bull outlook, sensible recognition of what you don’t know (ie the future), and low maintenance strategy, backed by years of company accounting experience, chimes so well with me.
Should you decide to do something in the HYP line in the future, perhaps a subscription blog or online newsletter, even if not in the format of TDL and regular “picks”, I will be a willing subscriber. (Better than paying investment company charges!)
I would like to wish you the best for the future, and to thank you once again.
Bruce
