It stands to reason that no one with any investment experience is going to take anyone's advice without doing their own due diligence. If inexperienced people are too lazy to check things out they will learn a valuable lesson, and that is, THERE IS NO FREE LUNCH! Sorry to be so blunt but the old adage of "LET THE BUYER BEWARE" applies even more to the novice investor. Free speech is a right. One does not have to believe what another states as being true. Always question investment advice even if it comes from Warren Buffett.
