Greg,

How often do you suggest us new guys be checking up on the stocks that we own? It seems to me that you can get a little OCD with it all.

How often do you suggest we rebalance our portfolio?

What exactly is a EFT? You have mentioned them before. It appears to me to be more like a mutual fund that buys bonds. Is there a fee for using them? On the EFT JNK, back in January of 11, they paid a short term, and a long term capital gains. Instead of the dividend of being around .25 it jumped to .90. Could you explain this please?

Do you look at the Price to Earning ratio, when choosing a stock? Do you also look at the earnings per share when make a decision?

Thanks again for the wealth of information you have given us.
