  What do the people that run these systems know that you don't know?

  1.  LTI Investor's BBS, Worthington, OH
  2.  Stockfinder BBS, Rockford, IL
  3.  Fantasy $tock Funds, Dallas, TX
  4.  On-Line Mutual Fund Newsletter, Portland, OR
  5.  Summa Summarum Financial BBS, The Netherlands
  6.  Financial BBS, Karlsruhe, Germany
  7.  The BBS Connection, Portland, OR
  8.  Goldfinger's BBS, Houston, TX
  9.  TANSTAAFL BBS, Dillsburg, PA
 10.  Keystone BBS, Shrewsbury, MA

        These systems are the Top Ten systems in message volume make
   up the Financial Information NETwork or FINET.  What stocks are
   hot, what are not; are mutual funds still a good buy or should they
   be a goodbye??  Is there a software program you can run that will
   tell you what to buy and when??  More importantly, is there a program
   that will also tell you when to sell??

        The people that run these systems also know something else you
   don't know.  They know how to join a network where the only cost to
   them is compiling a nodelist, carrying a few echos and having someone
   pick up the entire long distance phone bill.

        There is no cost to join this network.  No initiation fee, no
    monthly dues, no long distance bills to pick up mail.  Just carry a
    few echos to stay on top of the market and keep abreast of whether
    you should be in the market making money or out or the market
    keeping what you made.

        Where's the trick phrase??  What's the catch??

     Here's one catch:       Compile a nodelist.
     Here's a trick phrase:  Carry a few echos.

        Catchy huh??  Not really.  If you are a Financial BBS in the
     U.S., Canada or anywhere else, you can belong to the network where
     talking about business, making money and helping everyone in the
     process, is considered "Where it's at!"

    Welcome to the Financial Information NETwork (FINET)!!

    The FINET is about money; your money and your caller's money.  You
 may be running your system as a hobby and have a board that allows you
 to provide a service to the community.  Or, you may be interested in
 starting a board to generate some dollars to offset your costs in
 operating your system.  On the other hand, you may be interested in
 operating a small business and bringing in some $$ to eventually build
 a business to support yourself and your BBS habit <g>!

    It doesn't matter which person you are.  The FINET is probably the
 network for you and we probably have an echo that can satisfy your
 needs. Unlike some other networks, we are not charging for access to
 FINET at this time.  Depending upon how we develop our network in the
 future, this may be subject to change.  So now is the time to jump in
 and get grandfathered into the net!!

    The FINET only has two required echos.  One is an administrative or
 SysOp Echo.  This is where we announce new nodes joining the network and
 provide daily administrative "stuff" that goes along with any network.
 The other requried echo is The Fortune Exchange.

    In The Fortune Exchange I discuss issues that affect all investors and
 let investors know how they can get the most bang for their buck.  I let
 them know how to buy stocks without paying a broker's commission, I give
 them the name of an investment club they can join for $15 - 1/2 the price
 of an individual membership and each month they recieve Better Investing
 Magazine from NAIC. They also have the opportunity to buy over 100 stocks
 without paying a commission!!  They may ask for an opinion on a specific
 stock and I'll report where the stock is and when to buy or sell.

    The Fortune Exchange is where I start new echos and bring them into
 the main stream.  The Small Investor echo started in The Fortune Exchange
as did the Investment Clubs (N.A.I.C.) echo.  I am working on a European
Stocks echo and also a Penny Stocks echo in the Fortune Exchange at the
present time.

    FINET is using zone 500.  The network is dedicated to providing
 information to investors interested in their financial affairs.  The
 echos we are currently developing include:

    Status = A  indicates Active.  These are active echos that I am
 passing to other nodes.  These have moderators assigned to them and are
 generating a small message base each week.

    You'll notice that several of our echos have a (*) next to them.
 These are echos that we are currently charging our clients a fee to
 access on our host system.  You don't have to charge if you are running
 a system as a hobby.  If you are interested in starting a business with
 you BBS, you can F'Req BBSMONEY for more information.  I explain how I
 worked started a BBS and made enough to keep my system in good shape and
 make a couple of extra dollars to boot.  But I'm getting off track.

    We are currently in the process of adding nodes across the U.S.,
 Canada and Europe.  If you are interested in joining please read all the
 enclosed documents and send in your application to your nearest Hub/Host.
 If you are interested in becoming a Host for your area please specify so
 and we will take it from there.
