<<So, the big question........ how does a company which would make a lot of people rich, but is flat with no one buying the stock, convince a person like me to invest (gamble) his money?>> IMO, by executing properly and proving they are deserving of your investment...but of course only you can do dd and decide if you think LBWR is worth it or not. One thing you have to consider is this is a pink sheet penny stock...so the 'executing properly or not' part may or may not be seen until after it rises 1000% or drops 95%. IMO, penny stocks are gambling stocks, not investments. However, 'gambling stocks' have the means to give you short term gains that you will never see holding GOOG for 10 years...they also can provide fast and large losses in a short period that you would not see holding GOOG for 10 years.....So, imo, it is a matter of personal preferance.....you either look at LBWR and like the prospects of making a nice profit, or you dont. Only you can make that decision. <<Also, is it a secret about how much each of you have invested in this company or how many shares each of you own?>> No, not a secret, but I myself do not post 'how many shares I own' or 'how much money I have invested'.....I also do not pay too much attention to those that do post that info...after all...these are message boards....if I told you I held 10,000 shares of goog long, how do you know if I am being truthful? I could really have no shares or even be short.....And when it comes to penny stocks, I pay even less attention to what people claim to hold.......The person posting they have 10mil shares of xxx.ob and plan to buy another 10 mil, could actually be selling the 500 shares they own, as they are posting<lol>....This is pretty normal for penny stocks which is why I pay little attention to what people say they own or say they will be buying...case in point....I was pm'd twice in the last few weeks and was told by the poster pm'ing me that he and others would be buying millions of shares of stock xxx.pk at a certain price level...the same poster told me he and others would be buying alot more then that if it ever fell to xx price level....the stock in question did hit BOTH price levels, yet there was no buying of any kind...so, obviously the poster telling me this was not being 100% honest.....Hence, I do not pay much attention when I see posts from anybody saying how many shares they own, how many they will be buying or how much money they have invested....Are you being told the truth or not? No way to know, so best to be safe then sorry by listening to such posts, imo....As for me, as I said I will not post how many shares I have or how much money invested on the message boards as it means nothing.....I will say that as far as LBWR goes, I have only free shares riding...by saying 'free', I mean by trading the stock I have managed to get my money off the table and leave the casinos money on the table.....'Free' or not, it is still money so very obviously I hope to see it go up, not down.... <<I am now going to take cover and see what kind of response I get! Actually the question is open to everyone. Thank you! Todd>> No need to take cover from me unless you do not like the brutal truth (good or bad)<lol>....I call things as I see them...good or bad....

survivor...I would say I will never buy a pinksheet stock again. Labwire is uplisting to the BB and it looks very good that it will happen. You have to decided for yourself if Labwire is worth your investment dollars. I think it is, that's why I'm here.

Todd, Chart looks like dilution, right? But it's not. Imo it's just a result of all the markets getting clobbered. Seems everyone has gone to cash (except me - I have been doing the opposite), and no one is buying. That coupled with uplisting delays has put us at prices that we have not seen in quite a while. Guess the best thing I can say is what I said here on iHub.

Thank goodness for the acquisition, and thank goodness for the alleged Boeing contract. Without those we might have had to endure some dilution. re "giving up the farm" - now that's the shocker to me. I really thought that the gross margins for Q1 were probably on the high side, and that the inclusion of 1 month of USIS revenue (the first business started June 1st) would lower gross revenue in Q2. Boy was I wrong. It went up 4 more percentage points and increased our average to 50% for the year. What a shocker. Now I can only wonder what the revenues and gross margins will be for Q3. Nice thing to ponder. :-) siliconinvestor.com GodBless-NoDoubt creede
