I have a "People Are Talking" section at the home page of the "A Rich Life" blog that lists 85 comments by both big names in the field and ordinary investors who have found great value in the Return Predictor and in the other work I have done in this field. Click the link to the Predictor, look for "A Rich Life" at the left side of the page, and you are there. All the comments are linked to the web site where they appeared. The two comments above were put forward by "friends" of a fellow who got an important number wrong in a retirement study and who hates me because I created a calculator ("The Retirement Risk Evaluator") reporting the number accurately. This Smea Campaign has been going on for nine years now. This is the dark and smelly side of the internet. I mean, come on. Rob This is Rob.

Frankly, there are a lot of 'free tools' that do nothing but mess up your system! Here is a forum dedicated to following the antics of the author of that particular tool. IMHO, I'd approach any output from this guy with extreme caution! http://www.s152957355.onlinehome.us/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl Prior to using a “tool” (like a spyware remover you find on the ‘net), one is wise to discover what professionals and power users think of the tool.

From what I understand of this calculator, its just another way of expressing "buy high, sell low" with a particular focus on value trading - or the practice of buying 'under-valued' stocks. What's really interesting about the calculator is it's essentially trying to tell you - all things held constant - what you can reasonably expect to earn off of an investment in a company with a p/e ratio of 'X' which could be very useful in having realistic long term expectations. Interesting tool. This seems like an interesting spin/visualization of the price/earnings ratio, essentially.
