Max90, do you NEED a 2/3/10 bagger to survive. If yes, you need to go with the flow. I'd like to but I'm not smart enough so I go for the 'infra-structure'. If these guys (internut) are so hot/real, then they'll pay me. Well, for every $10 they make, I'll get $1 to $2. Fortunately, I can live with that scenario. If they are not real, they still have to make it looks real and put in the 'infra-structure' just for the show. If the public willing to lend it for FREE, it's their choice, I'll still get some, hopefully, unless these guys go Chp.1&1. Just like Hollywood (or a general in the war), there are victims (girls/boys dreaming of being star) that we don't hear/see them. I mentioned TGLO(here or on AMZN thread) and where are they. I knew this stock because my sister-in-law went for it when 1st IPOs. She made a mistake but got out early enough that she only lost 30%. There are sickals out there in WS. I was the victims at least several times and of course those are embarassing and horror stories. Now, I'm ULTRA-conservative, money and personal viewpoint. I don't hate Hollywood. I just think it should have its own planet. It's a sign of time. We are at the best of time AND the worst of time. You can put this writing on the wall. We'll go through normal human-cycle just like everyone else (we are human, are we, I mean the U.S citizens, or we are different). Also, I'm getting old, so these smart guys are way ahead of me in getting rich quick. Fortunately, I don't have expensive habits. Trust me, the disparity of rich and poor, (assets inflation and no wage increase and no inflation) when it gets too great, we all suffer and I don't want to dwell on this point. There are enough history on this.
