alan kohler article, page-3

I read somewhere that Kohler has never owned shares.
Anyone else think it strange that for all his comments about all shares that he has not dabbled in them.

Well I think it is strange, and for several reasons, because ,most people own some shares even if they are tls cba etc you know the ones.

So I take his comments as an outsider looking in, and give no value to them.
I think one has to actually experience the ownership of shares, know what its like to make a good call and a profit, and feel the pain when it goes the wrong way.
He has never had that experience.
I also feel he is a 'token' commentator, or generic, not the real thing.
I would rather the comments from players in the market, fund managers etc.
