OT--penny stocks


There is a heavy marketing effort at present to get John and Jane Doe to invest in penny stocks. I think this is an incredible scam. Betting on penny stocks probably has a lower pay off than buying a lottery ticket or picking the longest of long shots at your favorite horse track. Zero. Zip. Nil. None. I suspect this scam has political roots. One of the political parties has a tangential campaign that leads one to think that investing in the stock market is some how a road to success. They even pose the idea that Social Security should be opened up to investment councilors and other potential thieves of one's savings.
