I've always said this kind of stuff is nothing but a fad. I can't own fads because I can't understand them nor can I predict their future/failure. Failure doesn't mean ZERO -- it just means that longer term they're irrelevant based on what everyone THOUGHT they'd be.

I am still faithful it will pan out. I have 150 shares @ 38. Long on FB. would be happy to make a few bucks and at least feel like i learned something.
One other basic investing strategy is to look for tax advantages. Do you have any thoughts on how to leverage tax exempt investments? I look for tax free Munis but that all i know about.
