Mr Forthright, I'm afraid that won't do. I do not think that any start up, i.e. bb has built in credibility, however, that does not mean that they are all scams either. What you Janice and your buddies do is to make judgements with little or no research. The incident with the innocent, non hyping thread, who's only crime was a wish to stay private was a perfect example. It seems to me that you and your friends get a major charge out of hurting others. Hardly an admirable quality. Perhaps this might come as shock to you, but none of you have cornered the market on intelligence. As for your opinions on which companies will or will not succeed, they are no more valid than those who disagree with you. Since the market projects 6 months out, no one, not even Janice really knows. I know this concept may be hard for you to grasp, but it's true. The incredible time and effort you people put into bashing other people's investments, could be so much more valuably spent by volunteering for charity work and really helping those in need. Perhaps you might suggest they redirect their efforts to something worthwhile. Then I could admire them as much as they seem to admire themselves. Sandy |
