Conversation with myself...

I want to see subscriber growth up 20% per quarter and some other stunning numbers like EBay is posting...

Now calm down a bit and quit crushing those beer cans: remember that this whole thing hasn't really begun yet. We are still in the pre-season, heck, there are barely any billers to pay, why would anyone want to join without anyone to pay yet...

But I get crushed when they announce their numbers and, well, the word 'lacklustre' comes to mind...

How about you look at the growth in the number of billers that have signed? That is a better indicator of the progress at this stage. Analysts that are over focused on the subscriber growth are looking for the ball game score when it really hasn't begun yet...

Ok, ok, but I want another country, Malaysia, now that was cool, we haven't had one of those in a while...

Ya, that was cool, but hey, compare that to YaHoo, think about it you moron...

Ok, ok, I'll wait damnit, but this is really starting to piss me off...

Just think of all the valuable investing lessons you have learned over the past year like patience, not to use margin(ouch), patience, the value of patience, buying on dips(camel humps, death defying crashes), did I say patience...

Listen, you're starting to piss me off...

...sigh...

Back to lurking...
