Well, as another poster used to say when the going gets weird, the weird turns pro, this is an amazing story to follow. He only costed me time, mostly by reading what came from the deks of cousin shorty (Maybe, cousin shorty was the unfortunate trader-partner in the tlc venture, who knows). By then when the funny thing with large graphics happened, another poster put in a less pleasant message, but failed to explain what was really happening.

You point out a troubling attitude: if one blew the cash in the stock market or the casino several times, but continues to round up new money from friends only to blew it again then this points to addictive behavior. I recognise the villains on our streets who beg for a few pennies to buy lunch or whatever but most of the time invest it in yet another booze or H.
