On the Light Side - Everyone Loves Nero

Nero is the Nom de Web for an individual that contributes to the discussions at Googles finance site, www.google.com/finance.

From what I've seen,  most of his contributions have to do with the bank stocks and  especially Ultrashort Proshares Financial , < skf >.

English is not Nero's first language, and almost all of his posts that I've seen are entirely in capitals.

Many people are upset by Nero's comments and his response is to upset them even more. Here's a sample in the man's own words, exactly as he wrote them, misspellings and all -


YOU GUY HAVE DEVELOP IED
INVESTOR ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION YOU ONLY LOOK DOWN! I RECOMMEND A DOSE OF BONEROL

YOU GUYS ARE LICKING YOUR WUNDS

But my favorite is this one, when he refers to that clown Jim Cramer of CNBC -

pull back at 5 never touch less then 6.99 since the guy is a good economist on stock use your immagination  -


< Yes Nero, by all means, it is very important to use your imagination  when listening to Jim Cramer. It never ceases to amaze me that anyone can stand it for more than 3 minutes >

In March, April, and May Nero made literally hundreds of posts Since then it's been 10-30 a month. Who knows, maybe the guy got a job.

Recently Nero has claimed Google and others are deleting his posts. He calls it Media Terrorism.

Though we've never met, I actually know who Nero is. For his sake, based on all the people he's irritated, I hope there's very few others that do.

"Humor is an affirmation of man's dignity. A declaration of his superiority over all that befalls him" - Attributed at different times to Jules Renard or Romain Gary.

Keep smiling, my friends.
