I remember seeing those ads back in the day. That was when I was investing money I'd made mowing a cemetary (a job [as caretaker] I held from 1973-1980) in various ways including the stock market. I never bought any of it though, investigation showed the facts and I shied away.
Did pretty well on my RGI stock. But then I got married and all my savings/investments went away. I was worth more at 22 than I am now. Of course the reign of Voodoo Economics hasn't helped any.
