Q: I see wealthica is trying to assume the portfolio tracking business that Google is abandoning. I used Google, but am reluctant to go to Wealthica, as they require you turn over your investment portfolio access and password, which sounds unsafe.
Do you feel they are safe to deal with/

Q: Hello: I wonder if you could tell me the number of shares held for each of the securities in the Balanced Equity Model Portfolio as of today. I would like to set up my own version of the BEP in Yahoo, and without number of shares, I won't be able to monitor anything. I like to compare my portfolio with the BEP so that, for example, if my portfolio takes a sudden dip but the BEP also does, it gives me a little bit of relief. Not exactly "schadenfreude," but I don't worry too much because I feel I'm in good company. Take as many question credits as is appropriate. Thank you
