<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collector1966, post: 1238004, member: 17919&quot;]There is no way in the world where the average investor can buy enough stock in a company to have any practical say in the company&#039;s operations and management. Unless you&#039;re some corporate raider or a Warren Buffet, your paltry amount of shares will maybe get you a back-row seat at the shareholders&#039; meeting. But shareholders&#039; revolts go nowhere if it&#039;s just a bunch of Average Joe Investors doing the revolting. Been there, done that.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as there being &quot;never any promises that you will make money or even be able to break even,&quot; apparently you have never dealt with a stock broker. If I had a dollar for every time I&#039;ve heard &quot;over the long run, stocks outperform all other asset classes&quot;, I&#039;d be a rich man. </p><p><br /></p><p>Stocks are the ultimate Ponzi scheme.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
