Introduction Compact

Ok people, it's time to give back for a good cause.

Many, many terminally ill children will spend christmas in the hospital. Lets all scrape together a few trading commissions and send some toys to your local childrens hospital.

I am working on additional corporate sponsorship to make your dollars go much much farther.

We don't have alot of time, the time to act is now, not Dec 23.

My goal is to raise $1,000,000 in the first ever online stock traders' charity drive.

The internet being what it is, I have selected the following company as the initial supplier;
bearhonstok.com

They will sell their lines at wholesale prices and donate an additional $500 in toys to the Montreal Childrens Hospital for each 10K level reached. An additional $1000 Kicks in for each 100K level reached. Minimum shipment / hospital is $100, or between 1-8 trading commissions.

I will have the wholesale pricelist posted on Monday.

You do not need to wait for my corporate sponsorships or the pricelist, you can start making $ pledges now publicly or privately. We will keep a running tally of pledges and matching corporate $. You can be indentified by your pledge and the hospital, or you can remain anonymous yourself or your hospital.

Further details to follow, but the time to act is now.
