Drill,
Honestly, if Urban did scam 60,000 people then I have to respect that. No matter what anyone says, good or bad, that is a feat that probably will never be repeated in history. If such a scam really took place, it was designed, engineered, and brilliantly enacted on par with the Manhattan Project and the building of the first atomic bomb in Los Alamos in the early 40s. It is something that is extraordinary, IMO.
Not only that, but if said is true, he not only conned a huge amount of people, but conned people into conning other people into buying the stock! Just look at people like Georgeburns, Braindamage, Sterling, Dr. D, and the plethora of other people he got to promote this stock to other people! It's fecking amazing! Like it or not, I have to respect the huge amount of enthusiasm and dynamics that were involved in this whole charade. Not only did he con 60,000 people but he conned others into conning others! I find that incredible, if it really did happen that way. It truly is amazing in this high-tech day and age, that such a thing could take place; it makes one realize that we (as a society) are more vulnerable and not as advanced as we think. It's easy to imagine such a con being machinated in the 30s, but in the 21st Century...? LOL!
I see that the most disgruntled in this stock are those that pumped the stock and manipulated the message boards when they believed this was the "stockplay of a lifetime." That's what bothers me the most; the hypocrites who pumped this stock and now are bashing the crap out of it because of their own, personal guilt. These people are low-life scum, IMO.
Hey, I've made mistakes in my life. You have, too. Buying this stock won't be the first and it won't be the last. What the hell, really, it's been one helluva ride.
The verdict? Who knows... Still on the fence with this one... I just hope it pans out in our favor.
Take care, my son.
