I would like to be able to take your word that you have accomplished what you suggest.  Unfortunately (and understandably) it is pretty hard to verify your claims, while on the other hand it is pretty easy to verify the returns of a typical buy and hold dividend portfolio.

All we can do is base our opinions based upon our knowledge of finance and investing and how your claims fit in terms of reasonableness and probability.

Unfortunately you presented enough information over the past year or so that makes your claims questionable to say the least.

Clearly I am not going to change your investment strategy and I really have no interest in doing so - my only objective is to point out to those that are looking to learn are aware that if returns can't be easily quantified then the scenario is probably too good to be true.
