Brooke (Scarlet) it doesn't sound so much like bashing as whining. Very unlike the you we knew. True the stock price is in the basement. You decided to sell. You've got good reasons. But those are your reasons. You made your decision. You let us all know a little while back. What is it that motivates you to contribute more complaining? Are you trying to further convince yourself or the others here? I'm pretty sure we've heard it all and those that had to go have gone, and those that have to stay are staying. Bummer that you lost a ton of money. Bummer that you believed others too easily and gambled too much. Good for you deciding to get out while you felt the getting was still good or at least before it got worse. You made an executive (Brooke Inc.) decision. I can't hope that your decision to sell was wise, since ultimately that would mean DGIV won't recover. Your decision was the right one for you, but whether it was a wise decision remains to be seen. It ain't over until it's over. You're young, gainfully employed, and you have a potentially bright future. It's pretty much up to you. I hope you don't turn sour on the world or continue to show us your sour side because of decisions you made. I'm not making any excuses for DGIV, Chin, or anyone else. What's done is done, but it's not entirely clear whether what was done was good, bad or indifferent. We're currently trying to get to the truth of things. The main thing that's happened is the stock price is in the basement. I'm not entirely sure what that proves. You're convinced it proves more than I or 50+ others here think it proves. But you walked into this one on your own two feet. You walked out the same way. Personally, I'd rather you did NOT stay away. It's just that I liked your earlier attitude better. In the face of adversity, you still are able to choose who you are and how you present yourself. Money matters. But you know what matters more. --dch
