Sorry, not impressed.

I personally would prefer Bloomber/BNA keep thier hands off TTB, if it ain't broke don't fix it. I sure hope Bloomberg/BNA does not buy out TMI. They recently bought out STF Superforms and raised the price substantially as thier first order of business. If Bllomberg were to buy out TTB, I would immediately switch to QF given my experience with STF Superforms. I hope someone can post a comment that would put me at ease a bit. Good Day all.

There is nothing in the works to sell TheTaxBook to BNA, or any other company. BNA has no editorial input in the development of our products. The joint initiative with BNA is similar to our other joint initiatives with H&R Block, Drake tax software, TaxSlayer Pro tax software, and CrossLinks tax software. All of these companies recognize TheTaxBook as the number one fast-answer tax book in America, and have negotiated deals to use and promote our books in conjunction with promoting their own products. An added benefit to subscribing to certain BNA products is that you also get a copy of TheTaxBook.

Thank you Brad for that clarfication. Sorry if I jumped the gun.

An

alliance that strengthens TMA strengthens this board and the benefit thereof flows to us. Congratulations!

Also, thanks for the WSJ link which offered a link to this interesting reading: http://blogs.wsj.com/moneybeat/2013/...unkering-down-...

P.S. OOPS! Just read the dictate and dictum from my worthy colleagues (Gary2/Nashville) in the below thread ("Interesting reading" by Redneck). They ask for a brief description of links content so one can decide for him/herself if the link is spongeworthy. I fully agree* and apologize for my thoughtlessness. Herewith, my mea culpa and remedy: that dadgum sensation-seeking piece I put up is a theory that certain negative stock market indicators occurring within a narrow time frame foretell a looming market crash. In this case, whether or not the so-called "Hindenburg Omen" is/is not a lot of hot air.

P.P.S. I'll also try to stay away from those pics of a lotta dollars (You never know when you'll be treading on tender/favored toes).
