| 1.
“Does the TenBestStocks.com Proprietary Method consider
conventional financial indicators for stocks that it identifies
in its Weekly Web Update?” |
| The TenBestStocks.com Proprietary
Method identifies stocks based on their current profile
compared to the historical profile of successful growth
stocks. Although the TenBestStocks Computer Model
does consider a company’s financial stability and
substance, it does not incorporate speculative projections
of sales growth, earnings, P/E ratios, market penetration,
or similar indicators. |

| 2.
“Is there a difference in the individual growth
potential in stocks identified in the TenBestStocks Weekly
Web Update?” |
| TenBestStocks.com ranks all
500+ high growth potential stocks. The 100 highest
ranking stocks comprising the final 100-stock pool are
informed to subscribers those ranked
1 through 10 – identified as the TenBestStocks. A difference
in growth potential between the individual TenBestStocks is not considered
sufficient to impact portfolio allocation. |

| 3.
“How many separate stocks can change in the
TenBestStocks Weekly Web Update? Aren’t broker
commissions a major consideration in potential portfolio
performance?” |
| One to three stocks are typically
removed and added each week in revising the TenBestStocks
identified in the Weekly Update (an average of 1.57 since
May 1999). Brokerage commissions and other transaction
costs, of course, should be prudently managed and typically
average 0.5-0.7% per year on the portfolio value. |

| 4. “How
is the financial integrity of companies considered in
the TenBestStocks.com Proprietary Method? Shouldn’t
I be concerned about the intimate financial details of
the companies listed in the TenBestStocks Weekly Web Update?”
|
| All companies ranked by TenBestStocks.com
are listed on the NYSE, NASDAQ, or AMEX (and less
frequently on the Toronto exchange) with each meeting their
full listing requirements. TenBestStocks.com mathematically
considers the current and historical profile of those
companies in its weekly ranking process. While we
certainly encourage subscribers to become familiar with
issues identified in the Weekly Web Update as responsible
investing discipline, the Proprietary Method incorporates
the key “financial details” critical to relative
growth potential. |

| 5. “How
long should I expect to hold a stock identified in the
TenBestStocks Weekly Web Update and purchased?”
|
Since inception of TenBestStocks.com
the average stock identified in the Weekly Update remains
on the TenBestStocks list for 6.3 weeks. Stocks
consistently ranked between 1 and 7 frequently remain
on the TenBestStocks.com Weekly Update for 15 to 20 weeks
or longer.

| 6.
"Is TenBestStocks.com a stock trading system?
How is it different from the numerous day trading systems
that are in the market?” |
| TenBestStocks.com is not a
short term stock trading system. It's not designed
to make undervalue
stock picks or financial picks.
Nor is it intended to be a stock market
forecasting model. The foundation for the success
of TenBestStocks.com is weekly objective identification
of ten stocks that have the greatest potential for growth
and resistance to decline over the succeeding six-month
period based on established, factual historical information.
Other systems often base stock recommendations primarily
on uncertain forecasts of future prospects and related
market timing. |

“I want to have control of
my investments but I don’t want to be a slave to
them or to the market. What is the time commitment
involved utilizing the TenBestStocks Weekly Web Update?”
|
| The information in the TenBestStocks
Weekly Web Update is presented in a manner to be quickly
absorbed. Using an on-line broker, reviewing a
portfolio, assessing any required changes, and making
any necessary portfolio adjustments can be completed in
as little as one hour per week. |

| 8.
“How can I determine and assess the basis
of past performance of the TenBestStocks Model Portfolio?” |
| A complete history of all
transactions associated with the TenBestStocks.com Model
Portfolio is provided in two downloadable *.pdf files.
The Master Performance History is available to all visitors
to the TenBestStocks.com website and the Rolling Six-Month
History is available to all subscribers through the Weekly
Web Update. |

| 9. "Will
the TenBestStocks.com Proprietary Method protect me against
market declines? How has the Model’s performance
compared with the major market indices?” |
| No reputable methodology for
stock investing, including TenBestStocks.com, eliminates
market risk. Over its history, the TenBestStocks.com
Proprietary Method has consistently identified stocks
that have historically declined no more than the general
market averages (DJIA, NYSE, and S&P) during bear market
periods and have increased as much as 2 to 3 times their
rate during bull market periods. Past performance
of the TenBestStocks.com Model Portfolio is no assurance
of future results and your individual results may be
more or less than the Model Portfolio. |

| 10.
“How large a portfolio would be necessary for the
TenBestStocks Weekly Web Update to be a useful investment
tool?” |
| The TenBestStocks Weekly Web
Update can be useful to any investor interested in identifying
stocks with significant potential growth potential.
Investors with portfolios of $10,000 or greater may find
TenBestStocks.com especially beneficial in providing valuable
inputs to make the best investment decisions. |
| back to top |
| 11. “What
about stock market timing? Can the TenBestStocks
Weekly Web Update be used as a guide to time buy/sells
in the market?” |
| The unbiased identification
of the best performing stocks is the focus of TenBestStocks.com
and not the specific timing of buy/sell decisions to maximize
gain and minimize loss. A Long-Term Trend Line of
the performance of the TenBestStocks Model Portfolio is
provided for the use of subscribers. |
| back to top |
| 12. “What
sources does TenBestStocks.com use to develop the Weekly
Web Update?” |
| The TenBestStocks confirmed
in the Weekly Web Update are determined from a universe
of over 500 high-growth potential stocks as identified by the
investment community’s most highly regarded stock
advisors. This TenBestStocks Computer Model uses
only publicly available historical data in its calculations
sourced from well-established investment periodicals. |
| back to top |
| 13. “What
happens if I decide not to own all of the issues identified
in the Weekly Web Update or I continue to hold some issues
that have dropped out of the Weekly Web Update?”
|
| When compared to the TenBestStocks
Model Portfolio, individual portfolio performance will
vary based on the number of individual Weekly Web Update
issues held and their portfolio allocation. Holding
issues removed from the TenBestStocks Weekly Web Update,
of course, may either improve or reduce performance compared
to the TenBestStocks Model Portfolio. Effective
allocation between the different TenBestStocks issues
and flexibility has shown to be highly effective in achieving
overall growth for the TenBestStocks Model Portfolio. |
| back to top |
| 14. “I
have noticed that some stocks that drop out of the Weekly
Web Update continue to increase. Why wasn’t
this predicted?” |
| When a stock is eliminated
from the Weekly Web Update it is replaced by a stock that
has a greater performance potential based on the TenBestStocks.com
proprietary criteria. A stock that is eliminated
may well continue to increase – and often does. |
