Abstract
The almost sure limiting behavior of weighted sums of independent and identically distributed random variables barely with or without finite mean are established. Results for these partial sums,
have been studied, but only when α=−1 or α=0. As it turns out, the two cases of major interest are α=−1 and α>−1. The purpose of this article is to examine the latter.
