Investors choose to lose or make money

They can see a negative bit of news, validate it for themselves, then sell. They don't have to hang on to zero. These small investors could have saved or made money with tony's reports. They didn't have to hold. Some chose to hold though I personally believe that people who post that they held and lost because of tony are just promoters in disguise. They could have sold instantly, minimized their loss. Then when the stock bottoms, they could buy back in and let the promoters run it up again, then they can sell for a nice profit. They could have even shorted with him.

If you're standing in a burning building and tony comes up to you and says "hey, man. You're in a burning building. Why don't you get out so you don't get burned, scarred for life or end up dead." A rational person would look around, smell the smoke, see the flames and go "you're right, I think I'll walk out of this building, thanks!" An irrational person would say "that's not smoke, it's just mist. Those aren't flames, you're a liar! I'm not leaving. I'm staying to the end, long and strong!" Then you get totally burned up, scarred for life and you want to sue tony trying to state that he caused the fire. He didn't. He just told you about it.

The big guys hadn't made all the money yet when tony comes around. If he never came around, some of the scams would have just lasted longer and the insiders would have taken more money from the small investor. He does save the small investor besides teaching them how to spot scams and losers so they won't get burned again.
