i'm not here to offer any opinion on the stock, but i am writing because i feel like i owe people, here, and directly to ggg mgmt , an apology for my actions regarding this stock, talking people (anyone who would listen!) into buying shares without knowing anything at all about the stock market.
I just wanted to apologize to everyone that put your money into this stock and seemingly, lost it. i understand that betting money, big or small, can bring on great stress, and hope you weren't affected by it in this way. at least not too much. if it's any consolation, i didn't sleep for 3 years and put great strain on all my personal relationships. Idiot.
not that it's any excuse, but during my time here, writing and scheming daily, i was in the midst of some major addiction issues, at the bottom of a long downward spiral, that had me act and display behaviour i like to think i wouldn't have otherwise displayed. also probably suffering from acute OCD hence my obsession with the mo, and maybe why, in hindsight, it felt like the whole thing was "bigger than me".
i was wildly out of control, idiotic, and acting in a rapacious and purely selfish manner with complete disregard to anyone else. i was pumping the stock because i had bought a lot of shares and wanted the price to go up. i did this without any thought or consideration to anyone else, you guys here, and the global gardens mgmt team who i didn't even take into consideration until well after the fact, who obviously worked hard while the product was still alive. i was a coniving egomaniac, convinced that I was right, and nothing else mattered, taking notes from roger stone in that you need to do whatever it takes to "win", even if that meant acting in less than desirable ways. it was a terrible way to be and i know i'm just some random nobody on the internet, but still feel like this needed to be said, why i don't know, maybe to put it behind me, if that's possible. i feel pretty terrible about the whole ordeal, really.
i don't know why i decided to write this after all this time, but all of this has been weighing very heavily on my mind for quite awhile, and i know there is nothing i can do to fix whatever has been done, but feel like i owed it to you regardless, however late, and however deaf the ears it may fall on. i do not write apology letters, so, sorry if this all comes across as more than a little strange. does anyone even check this board anymore?
really hope all is well, and you've made a ton of money on some other stocks to cover your losses here. after the never ending nightmare of the mo, i will take my losses, and be done with the stock market, forever.
again, my sincere apologies to everyone affected by my senseless actions.
cheers
