<<Much of the earnings last quarter were from investments not sales.>>

I don't know what your point is. Net income from investments
decreased compared to a year ago. Net revenues are up more than 300%
from last year. Although sales and marketing costs are high at this
stage, these numbers should improve over the next few quarters. Net
income from sales should improve dramatically by next year.
