You are among friends. This is a safe space. Recognizing that you have a problem is the first step towards recovery. If it makes you feel better, I will admit that I <b>had</b> a corporate account that *just* expired. I made excuses and told myself that the shareholders of my company <b>needed</b> me to be informed; however, now that I have to pay for the subscription myself, I recognize that I was in denial. We will be uninformed together. :) @Bill Thank you for being honest with yourself, Bill. You are among friends. This is a safe space.

I am a sucker. "Hi Bill" At least I have recognized that I have a problem. I have paid, in one form or another, for WSJ since it came out - I am guessing at least 10 years. However, I think I am done. Many of the columns and information that, frankly, I thought was better quality that other sources was, simply, worth the money. However as the general quality of the business and financial journalism at WSJ has declined, I find the online content much less unique and valuable. So, the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem. Thanks Laurie for the online intervention. My name is Bill. I am a sucker.

I am about as conservative as they come and read about 5 online newspapers a day. The WSJ is not one of them. There are apparently a lot of suckers out there to make that business plan work. Laurie,
