Well, Maurice, I am not the one who lost money on G. You are. I just did a search on the G thread using Thuraya as a search term, and I see that Valueman warned you guys about Thuraya and ACeS in 1999! Message 12157467 Message 12797544 I was around in spring, 2000 - still plenty of time to save yourself. Message 12797544 Once upon a time you could make a lot of money investing in a concept. Well, I wouldn't call it investing, the term I would use is "taking a flier." Gambling. You can probably still do that, just not as easily as you could back in 1999. I am enthralled by the concept, too. I started this thread in March, 2000: Subject 33733 But I didn't put any money into it. For a while I was taking off of the tracking portfolio the companies that went under, now I am leaving them on. BTW, speaking of concept, my tracking portfolio for George Gilder is down almost 80% from January, 2000, which is when I started it. At the time, who knew?-g- siliconinvestor.com
