I'm just so naive about the sleazy underworld of penny stock fraud. I've gone through quite an evolution in my thinking. At first, I never believed that stock promoters for these penny stocks really existed. I just thought there were imbeciles who believed they could influence people by spamming the board 24/7 with pro-scam drek, but I figured there was no way anyone would actually pay them to do that. I couldn't possibly believe their silly, imbecilic drivel had any value or effect. Then I noticed when Monk emerged, many of multi-year IHUB pumpers joined forces with him and "The Den", and started promoting the Float Lockdown Scam (of which many JBI "investors" were also avid supporters). Aha! There really must be operators for these thinly traded pieces of shit stocks! It was as if Monk was the Shaka Zulu of IHUB promoters, and united them all into a common cause. That wasn't all that long ago, so it tells you how naive I really am about these things, and I'm not that young. Now I look at all these repeat-investors, who go "all in" one crappy pinky after another for years, always seeming to lose everything, and always following the same promoters. I wonder how it could have taken me this long to clue in.
