Special thanks to all Re: Membership fund!

I learned something by this. Like shaking a container of oil
and water, it may look like they are mixing, but they're still
very separate. These two things are money, and awareness.

It really wasn't about money. When money goes out of your hands
it is gone. Awareness grows when you use it.

In a very few posts, I became very aware of Charley. I knew it when
he was just about gone. The feeling I got was that I had ignored
him! Then I realized why.

He had laid out all the facts, was starting
in a new field from nothing. Had recognized the probability of
great potential (and risk) in CVIA and acted on it. With all he
could, at the time, He was in, had himself positioned
electronically with the one broker who would take his money
and in the best place to stay on top of his investment and ask
questions as well as simply read.

He was developing posting skill on a tight schedule which
cost him reading time and sleep. I'm sure he considered
that was a good investment and his next goal was to maintain
and grow this set of situations.

It was plain to see a motivated individual
in Charlie for what he had accomplished in the small
moments he was allowed. If you assume he has done this out
of necessity, you arrive at a fact.

Charlie is indeed a "hard knocks" investor,
welcome among his friends.
