You forgot the important one! Oops, can't pick and choose! "If you're really serious about looking for the treasure, get TTOTC and read it, and then go back and read the poem over and over and over again, and then go back and read the book again but slowly, looking an..looking at every little abstract thing that might catch up in your brain, that might be a hint to help you with the clues. Any part of some is better than no part of any." f $50 must break a lot of people  wymustigo, Sure that is a good quote, and I have no problem with that one. For to read is to: decipher, make out, make sense of, interpret, and understand, and if one was really doing the serious work of reading the poem, over and over and over again, as suggested, they may then understand that they do not require any hints or other information outside of that which Forrest has suggested. Seannm Nobody stated hints were "required", but only a fool would ignore them when the poem author tells you they exist. For someone who *cough* only uses the poem, you sure know a lot of quotes outside the suggested research material (poem and TTOTC). Guess that poem hasn't worked out too well since no chest is in hand, maybe the hints will help ya out  |

You kids are great entertainment, keep it going. |

All, Again it matters not how or by what method we reach the end of Forrest's rainbow and the treasure, only that one of us does. And until that day arrives we all are wrong and right at the same time. Seannm Can't argue that point, you are 100% correct with that statement. |

You kids are great entertainment, keep it going. If I needed help, asking you and the others in the old folks home would not even cross my mind. You croakers are great entertainment, thinking you have it all figured out. Keep it going. |

There has been a lot of talk about hints in the book and how someone would be foolish to ignore the extra help provided by TTOTC. Well count me the fool then. When I started the search I really couldn't afford it. I went on without it though. I still haven't read it. Without any disrespect meant in anyway towards Mr. Fenn or any other searcher, I feel fortunate that I haven't read it yet. I stress the word yet. I'm saving that pleasure for last. I believed him when he said all you need is the poem and a map. And those two items have taken me on a wonderful path of discovery uninhibited by any other outside influences. But again, we all have our own way.

Good man. Don't read it, don't waste your time. For as much as the book *might* help, it can also hinder. Save your cash, focus on the poem.

But again, we all have our own way. mthead This made me think of getting the book about a month after I found the poem and the story of the Chase. I spent that month paying so much attention to the poem, then when I got the book, became completely obsessed with pulling every little possible hint out of it that I could. I started to let my thoughts on the poem slide a little bit and focused more on confirmation solves from the book. Big mistake. I wish I had had more time to just reflect on the poem to start with. Now, when I read the poem, I think "Oohh what if this relates to this and that word relates to that other thing from the book" and it honestly clouds my thinking. |

I believed him when he said all you need is the poem and a map. Thats not what he said. He said: "If you're really serious about looking for the treasure, get TTOTC and read it, and then go back and read the poem over and over and over again, and then go back and read the book again but slowly, looking an..looking at every little abstract thing that might catch up in your brain, that might be a hint to help you with the clues. Any part of some is better than no part of any. f" "Some searchers overrate the complexity of the search. Knowing about head pressures, foot pounds, acre feet, bible verses, Latin, cubic inches, icons, fonts, charts, graphs, formulas, curved lines, magnetic variation, codes, depth meters, riddles, drones or ciphers, will not assist anyone to the treasure location, although those things have been offered as positive solutions. E xcellent research materials are TTOTC, Google Earth, and/or a good map. f" “There are hints in my book that will help you with the clues, but a clue will point you toward the treasure chest and a hint will just help you with the clues, if you can understand that. f” “All of the information you need to find the treasure is in the poem. The chapters in my book have very subtle hints but are not deliberately placed to aid the seeker. f” |

It is what he said.
ALL of the information to find the treasure is in the poem. ALL of it.
“All of the information you need to find the treasure is in the poem. The chapters in my book have very subtle hints but are not deliberately placed to aid the seeker. f”
And another
"The treasure is there for the person who can find it and I think that person will be positive in their attitude and deliberate in their actions. No one has any secret information that will take them to the hiding place. It’s in the poem for all to see. f"

Topic spin...
"And with my treasures bold."
I don't think that this is a clue to location. Maybe it speaks to his strength or perseverance.
