JAWZ, a true winner for you Arnie. I normally do not post on SI. I do not like hype. But this stock is real. Look at SCUR, their code was broken by Lucent Technologies and sells between $9 - $12 dollars a share. Please forgive me for not talking about FNTN. I have been reading this thread for some time. After reading Arnies post, hey the guy needs a stock to put a smile back on his face. Arnie, don't sell FNTN. This company will pay-off. Great thread people and thanks to all for intelligent, professional post. Happy Hunting :-) MicroKing

Greetings Arnie and welcome to this thread and FNTN, Highways usually run two ways. Many times we find ourselves on the side of the highways that are clogged with traffic and we seen to be getting nowhere fast. Then we look at the traffic on the other side of the street that is moving at the speed limit or faster and wish we could be going that direction. Well Arnie when you bought FNTN you moved from the slow and busy side of the street to the other and are now moving in a new direction. If you can muster some patience and stick with FNTN you will continue on the same street but going the right direction. Arnie these are only my personal beliefs and opinions so take them if you wish or just junk them. I have only a 70% (not so good) vs. 30% (winners) of picking the right BB stocks. FNTN in my opinion is at the top of the 30%. Anyway everyone needs to make their own choices. Best regards, Bill Fortune III

Arnie, You obviously jumped in on the hype. I have followed the thread for months now and have accumulated a fair amount of shares at .66 cents. What does this mean. Well for one thing I could cash out now and taken my winnings and run. But I have chosen not to. What did I do instead. I sold a loser stock in my IRA and bought more for longer than long. What did I pay. Well believe it or not I paid 1.67 a share. What has happened the price has dropped. So what do I have now. Some that I have a profit on and some that I'm losing on. But I will tell you, my second purchase was not on hype but on further faith in the company. I would bet dollars to donuts that many of the longers on this stock probably did the same thing. Hang in there. But don't expect to become a millionaire in a day or two. It takes time. Best of luck with your future investing. Greg

Hi Arnie, I sympathize with you, what an unlucky guy.. What made you buy FNTN @ $2 ? now you are loosing more than 31% of your investment in this company that may reach $0.2 in your opinion.. Well, I don't want to reiterate the potential laying ahead of this company because it is becoming boring subject by now and has been covered in previous posts by the professionals on this thread hundreds of times. Instead let me share with you my first encounter with this BB silly stock.. I got in FNTN back in October when it was in one of its surges, just like you did this time, for me it was around 0.25 for a while and when I decided to buy I place a market order for 10,000 shares and for my bad luck it was fulfilled at $0.57. Next think I new it was dropping down by the day, I thought I jinxed the stock for a while, it reached a bottom of 21 cents ( a loss of 63%).. My stocks were worth nothing IMO then, so did I sell ? NO (maybe stupid then)instead I kept buying more and more as it went down - averaging down.. Ten months later, from October last year, my average now is $0.349.. Now when I look back, I believe that the stock made me more scared than ever to let it slip away from my hands, I am developing a very strong attachment to it and will have to be very convinced to let it go.. My expectations are getting higher for it by the day.. This is by no means a recommendation or an advise to you, it is merely sharing with you my trading experience with this little gem. You can obviously make your own DD and judgment and that will be the one that you can blame your self for or flatter yourself with. Apologize for this somewhat lengthy story.. Best of luck to all TMK P.S. I was not trying to brag or hype in anyway..

Heyy Arnie, Good morning to you. My highest chunk was at 2.23, no regrets, all shares go up regardless of purchase price. Am using this opp to lower cost basis, while I am not privy to your investment style, give it some thought. In reply to an earlier post, please keep in mind that while there are many many newcomers to this issue (myself included) many of us are here because long time shareholders and friends have brought us in, think it was Raven who said " as bases form there will be "new" long termers getting in", we are all here for FNTN, now Ariella about that party,, LOLOLO,, L & S,, DP
