The first rule I learned was preservation of capital. $60 per month spent
needlessly is $60 on which no return is seen, compounded monthly. If your
$60 /mo gets you more accurate data, or if your time spent getting the $60
data vs. the free data yields a higher return, both of which I doubt, then
I would tend to agree with your position. Also, remember this is kind of a
cutting edge approach to getting data. I think the Excel initiatives are
pretty interesting. The Office 2000 version of Excel is going to have some
good data mining capabilities, so I've heard.
Cheers,
Jim
