This is a great post. Your style is really entertaining but quite informative.To be quite serious the key factor in investment is the old saw of risk and reward.In investing in stock that raises capital for companies you usually get some kind of discount to market price but suffer some restrictions in when you can sell it.Yeah the hated Meyerson has dumped some stock and made a great profit.How many of you would have invested almost three years ago and got warrants exercisable at 1.35 per share and not know when they would be exercisable(the stock was selling at less than .5 at the time).Many of us have put our money in what we refer to as a black hole (cannot trade fnet)it is called venture capital.I dont ask anyone on this board for permission to invest my money in a company I believe in and hope to make multiples of money. Thats what venture capital is all about.As I said before ,the hindsight jealousy of some of the posters on this board is disgusting and just pathetic.You dont understand the investment arena and you show it with every moronic post.go cut my grass.

x y zebra: I enjoyed reading your post. Agreed with most of it. One of the only things I didn't agree with is this. When you make money in the market, somebody else lost those same dollars. Likewise, if you lost money in the market, somebody else gain the same dollars. The market is not a zero-sum game. Just because one company grows and makes money for its shareholders doesn't mean another company somewhere else has to fail and lose money for its shareholders. That would fall under a socialist or communist philosophy that says there's only so much wealth in the world and in order for someone to have it, someone else must do without it. Cheers, KMT

FYI...I am nor whinning. I am stating the facts. Those are that FTEL is going DOWN...and has for some time. When did we get an uptick that was enough to cause some excitement?? A long time ago, right. My posts are of my own making and I do not post based on what you call the info from some brainless idiot. And we all know who you mean by that!!.... Am I not right that the PR company has not really done much for our beloved FTEL? And are there any news releases on the horizon for any that would bolster the price action? Not that I know of anyway... I suggest you look at the charts to see the trend of this one! And FYI....down again today. Disgusting! And also FYI....I will sell when I say sell. Not when you or anyone else proposes it! Have a nice evening. Hope we go UP tomorrow. That would be a welcome change, wouldn't it?? Bill
