Hahaha, what moron would pay $500 a year to get stock advice from a "former burrito merchant?" Let's look at his resume: >>Mr. Park grew up in Seoul, South Korea, has been a lawyer in Tokyo, a real-estate investor in Seattle and owner of Tokyo Joe's Classic Burrito restaurant in Manhattan. He says he dabbled in stocks for years through brokerage firms, but then in late 1995 discovered Internet chat boards and a new life. Suckers: >>'Pumping and Dumping' But Gary Swancey, a former heating contractor and Internet stock layer from Stockbridge, Ga., says Mr. Park and others have used their followers like "sheep" to push up the price of a small-company stock, then quickly sell for a profit, a practice called "pumping and dumping." I grew up in NYC. I know a shell game when I see it. What is Mr. Pinks game? He ain't doing this for free.
