FOX... & Premium NationFox,
You seem like a compassionate person... A good person... I think of myself as a compassionate person too... But...
I find it hard to believe that anyone just randomly found there way to stockhouse, then to the premium forum, and threw their life savings into this because of a few posts on the board... And if they did, they should have read ALL the DISCLOSURES that were given to them when they opened up their trading account... Instead, I would bet that the person got wrapped up into the moment, and got GREEDY, and now wants to blame everyone but themselves.... Not fair... I feel for all of these types, but also strongly believe in personal responsibility... Coffin cannot be held responsible for another persons actions. It is not his job to hold anyones hand but that of his family and his own... He also raises an interesting point... PEM is back up near highs... If oldlady wants to blame him instead of herself, perhaps she should also blame him for expressing his interest to reload back in the .10 range... Oldlady, I feel for you, but you need to get past this for your own sake if nothing else... The hardest blame to swallow is that of the personal nature... It is also the denial of this action that will destroy a persons life...
Fox... again, you seem like a compassionate good hearted person, but I can understand if coffin feels a little defensive... Maybe he is a little harsh, and maybe he could use different words, but he is in many ways absolutely correct in what he is saying... He is clearly also trying to share some very valuable wisdom both with regards to his research and his experiences in this game, so I don't think he will have too much trouble sleeping at night, nor should he.
Cussy, the Windsurfer:)
PS... Good luck to all, and I only have the best wishes for ALL, including Coffin, Fox, and of course all of the "oldladys" out there.
