  What Everybody OUGHT TO KNOW…About this Stock and Bond Business
  
  Learning to think (& act) for ourself is the key to enduring success. So today, I spend a great deal of time personally learning and teaching novice investor and skilled trader alike, how to trade actively and invest short-term. Long-term investors learn from the short-term principles. TraderZone is the vehicle I use. The system is pragmatically tested in a real-time environment to produce consistent results in a reliable way. The company is perhaps "the" innovative leader in investment software. We are able to compress our clients learning curve (from the usual years of personal experimentation, disaster and capital erosion) to a few short months of immediate success. If you are interested in earning an income from the market, phone me at 1-866-772-3049 .
  
  So, there is nothing I'd rather do than help you to learn to better think for yourself through a relaxed structured program.

  What do 143 top industry gurus, including Peter Drucker, Tom Peters, Warren Bennis, Jim Collins, Daniel Goleman, James Kouzes, and Barry Posner, say we must do if we want to lead and inspire our workforce? In an 18 month study I boiled down the maze of the latest literature into 10 simple practices. If you want to understand the hidden qualities of great leaders e-mail me (andrew@windfallmarkets.com) and ask for my 2004 book, The Ten Best Practices of Leadership, yours free for the asking.
  
  Implementing leadership has always been my passion. My personal goal is to help both the small fry and the budding entrepreneur build genuine enduring success into their life. I am certain that what differentiates today's leader is integrity, tenaciousness, and two secret weapons: Innovation & Marketing skills.
