I don't approve of the way Anthony comes across. At times he is very harsh and demeaning. However, Anthony provides a little balance to the craziness that is going on in the market place. Greed has certainly stepped up front and center and some sanity must take hold. I am new to this board and have had my own run in with Anthony. I bought a hyped gambling stock called STARNET (SNMM ). I lost a lot of money on the company and he severely berated me for buying it. I could very well afford the loss however he was 100% right in calling me a jerk for buying it in the first place. I really think he is trying to help people from going overboard and being scammed. He could be thinking that Guilder is no Messiah and should not be blindly followed. Steve Harmon had that type of following and cost investors millions of dollars. Why NBC continues to promote him I can't understand. If Anthony has another agenda I don't know what is is. Again, Therefore I cannot fully defend him. One thing for sure is that he is very passionate in what he does. In addition on certain topics he makes good sense.

I don't think Anthony can demand good faith answers UNLESS he GIVES good faith answers to the questions asked of him. It is reasonable and fair for us to be insistent on his answers. This does not mean we are "blindly" following anyone, including GG. BUT, should we blindly follow Anthony by allowing him to frame the debate and evade our questions? This tactic of turning the tables in a debate is used all the time by shorts. The script well memorized because it is only one act that plays over and over again. Anthony's brash retorts and insults (as are his friends) are solely for the purpose of gaining our attention and engaging us in defending our positions. This allows him to get us off topic and avoid answering any inquiries into "who" Anthony Amr Elgindy is, what he really stands for, if he gains financially by being a self-appointed truth detector and if so, how much, his accuracy rate, criminal background if any,etc.. To get an idea of how this game is played, look how far we strayed from the questions posed to him in a few short hours of posting. Anthony, Kudos! You are great at turning the debate back to your opponent. May I be as bold to suggest we have Anthony answer our questions first and then we will answer his. We should continue this format of questioning each other while Anthony and his friends are visiting. I believe it will be very enlightening as everyone on this board can become a self-appointed truth seeker. After all, this is America, the land of opportunity where we should all seize the moment in seeking truth. Kind Regards, Merylee
