RE: RE: How the truth is stretched

RE: RE: How the truth is stretchedSo GoldieLocks,

You see yourself a an investor? and not as a speculator.
Difference is simple the investor knocks on the door of a company with a big fat check and tells them to use the funding for the development of the business and or operations, usually in return for a bunch of shares, sounds familar also called a PP.

On the otherhand we have the speculators, folks like me and many others, they buy shares on the open market, i.e. the TSX, hoping another speculator will pay more for it and thus generating the so called capital gain (or loss if it didn't work out). But the money paid for the shares does NOT end up in the capital budget and the balance sheet of the company. The only thing the company and the people running that company will hear from those 'sol called investors' that they $uck in running the company because the shares aren't rocketing as fast as the speculator requires them to do, while sippin' brandy (or whatever) in their rocking chair.

So my question to you is this, did you bought your shares from NAG as a PP or in the IPO as an investor (although in the IPO would still be more like a speculator) or just as an authentic speculator with your broker or which ever investment online program ??

If it turns out to be the latter then look in the mirror and lie to yourself (btw most stupid thing you can imagine) by saying I'm the new Warren B (but one without balls) or be honest and admit all you wanna do is just making a buck without doing anything for it (oh yeah your taking the risk, duhhh).

I know your the latter (speculator) and not the first, cause you're bashing, and you're not gonna do anything to improve anything.

Twister

Note, I'm honest, I am a speculator. But I take the ups and the downs as they come and it's MY decision to buy/sell shares. This is not an Enron/Madoff case, so we're not deceived orso. We're just plain greedy.
