That is exactly what I am saying. And this is why they call this arena 'the casino'.
Truth and honesty are not the norm in this arena and NO, you should NOT be surprised if you find out a company has not been 100% honest. If you play in this arena and are going to get upset if you find out a company has not been 100% forthright, you are going to find yourself 'upset' quite often.
Stocks/companies in this arena are NOT investments...they are gambles.
Show me a list of companies in this arena that have been 100% honest and were solid long term investments and it will be a very, very short list and for every success story coming from this arena there are 200 times more that fail.
Creede, you yourself should know this......how many times and with how many companies did you think the company was legit and the ceo honest and forthright, only to find out after the fact the company was not 100% honest and nor was the ceo? You seem to not want to accept that 'deception' is the norm in this arena.
As far as disclaimers...I wont even bother trying to discuss that with you....You seem to think sljb's disclaimer is rare, when the fact is most companies disclaimers in this arena read very similar and that again is the norm, not the exception in this arena. Frankly, I am sorta shocked you read sljb's disclaimer and think it is somehow 'unique', as if I posted a list of 'ugly discalimers' from companies in this arena, I would be typing for years......
Lastly, your argument seems to be that if you feel a company has been deceptive then you are going to speak up...hey, I have no problem with that at all....but I do question why you are not 'speaking up' on the multitude of deceptive companies in this arena...after all....there are multi-thousands to keep you busy if your goal is to expose 'deceptive' companies and bash them......
<<I should just say it's part of the game, and move on.>>
YEP, YOU SAID IT!!! You dont really think this is 'investing' do you?? IT IS GAMBLING and NOTHING MORE. As I said, if you are going to get in a tizzy every time a company in this arena is not 100% forthright, you best have your blood pressure meds handy at all times and be prepared to throw ALOT of tizy's.... |
