Douglas Gerlach in the Sunshine State
Douglas Gerlach coming to the Sunshine State for two different events. In the Pensacola area, Douglas will be teaching "Dealing with the Dogs of Your Portfolio" on September 4, 2008. Join your fellow investors for an exciting day of investing of education at Keller Williams Realty Pensacola office (7140 North 9th Avenue, Pensacola, FL 32504). The evening will begin at 5:30 PM with the Club Presidents' light supper and the Chapter's annual meeting. Doug will join the Emerald Cost Chapter's directors in a Q&A session about investment club operations, accounting, taxes, and trouble-shooting.
Then from, 6:30-9:00 PM, Doug will present "Dealing with the Dogs of Your Portfolio." Every investor and investment club has a stock or two that doesn't live up to expectations. Learn how to identify problem stocks before they're in critical condition, and discover strategies for knowing when to sell - and when not to sell.
For more information, contact the Event Registrar, Maurice W. Johnson at johnny@gulftel.com or by phone at (251) 986-8170.
Doug will also be the keynote speaker at the Space Coast Chapter's Annual Presidents' Luncheon on Saturday, September 6th. This event will be held at Lake Receptions, 4425 Highway 19A, Mount Dora, FL 32757 from 9 AM - 3 PM. A reprise of Doug's "Dealing with the Dogs of Your Portfolio" will follow lunch.

Long before the saying, "Think Outside the Box," became popular, long-term investor Susan Maciolek was doing just that. "It was way back when the Internet was new to me," recalls Susan, one of the founding members of the 14-year-old, all-women Bower City Investors club of Janesville, Wisc. A long-time BetterInvesting member and a Director of the South Central Wisconsin BI Chapter, Susan "met" fellow investor Lynn Ostrem online through a mutual friend. "Lynn had questions about BI's Pert A form, and we were able to conduct an online class via emails," Susan says.
That was just the beginning. "It wasn't long after that that (BI writer) Amy Crane asked the question: "What makes a good club?" she recalls. "That really got me thinking about how well our club runs and how we might share some of our ideas with other clubs."
Sharing the Wealth... of Knowledge
When you're on to something - like investment club tips that work - there's no sense in keeping it a secret.
