There may be some hope for fund prognosticators. Not surprisingly old world measures are important.

Mirror Mirror on the Wall, Is My Toad of a Fund Fairest of All?
If you have a dud fund this software will help you sell it to unwary dwarves. Poor returns are not an issue!

The Frugal Bugle

Stingy Links: Retirement Roundup

Hard working and hard up

A surefire way to cut taxes
Make less money and live frugally. A fine recipe for retirement.

Another Tech Bubble?
Look at those techs go! I think I'll stick with my dull stocks. At least they generate some cash.

Would you like some conflict of interest with that stock pick?

Surprise, surprise, but don't forget all the investors who ignored the old rules.
