Presentation is the key. Much better to ask questions than to make a negative statement. You are trading very sensitive issues here, not blue chips. Investors can both hype and be scared off. Pointing out that your broker friend was negative is not good and not necessary to get the answers you want in the dialogue. This is not a fair play forum run by some honor code. You must be careful who you listen to and be careful not to create any negative vibes. Hype and optimism rules here and negative posts are always badly received. Send private posts to those you seem to respect when you want specific clarification on issues of concern. Best of luck.

You have a lot to learn. Read the thread and your questions will be answered. This is not a hyped up stock. It has traded from .15-.20 all week It languished below .10 all winter long and is just now begining to define itself. If you bother to read the thread you'll know that nothing new is in any of the press releases at all. These were all known facts, posted by shareholders on this thread. Second this stock will not make me rich. Even if it goes straight to $100. I have not bet my entire life on this stock. I want what every one else in the market wants, a decent return on my investment. I would bet you lost money because you were greedy. You listened to someone yelling this stock "IS GOING TO THE MOON!" or your broker friend saying "duh our target price is $10 in 6 months now at .01" You bought in during a frenzy (hoping to get rich quick) and got burnt. Thirdly I would not recommend buying this stock after the news release, let it settle down some. Then you will truly know if it is going to .004 I tell you if this goes below .10 again I will buy more and more and more. Buy LOW sell HIGH - simple. You are correct in thinking there are alot of scams out there. Thats a start, it gives me a glimmer of hope for you yet. Again, read the thread, call the company, visit the company. Don't rely on this thread or you broker or anyone else to tell you where to put your money. JF Edit: BTW Brokers are the worst hypsters. Even with Blue Chips, they'll issue a downgrade, buy tons of stock and then issue an upgrade a month later.
