RE:The Departing Thoughts of PassionatepiperHi Passionatepiper (and anyone on this board who is befuddled by the profligate postings of PP – and he has only been posting for a month!!!).
The true test of a first-rate mind is the ability to hold two contradictory ideas at the same time (F. Scott Fitzgerald....). This quote explains why your posts are appear schizophrenic. Poor unenlightened me! In trying to understand your investment philosophy, 10 days or so I reposted the “best” of your posts, and you responded with the word “creepy”.
Your continuing postings have piqued my interest further.
PP says: “I hope everyone who posts here makes a pile of money but as an experienced investor I care...I have to care...more about losing money than making it. It's called prudence”
PP says: “You'll never convince the religious that there is no invisible deity and you'll never convince the novoites that there is not Wits 2.0. Belief is often intractable once deep seated.”
PP says: “I own KL which owns 25% of you [Novo] and I own token gambles in De Grey and Artemis although I may sell them and put the funds into KL....”
UNBELIEVABLE, as a bipolar crafty rogue, you still want a flutter on the side -TOMORROW is MELBOURN CUP day in Australia so people appreciate this weakness of yours – but you have to explain to us ignoramuses how you rationally, logically justified choosing De Grey and Artemis. Please explain. Why these two…???
YET on 28th October PP posted “There is the price you pay for a stock and then there is value. After listening to the Cook interview I'm taking a pass on Novo and selling my Artemis and De Grey Monday.” BUT YOU DIDN’T SELL. WHAT MADE A RATIONAL PERSON CHANGE THEIR MIND?
PP says: “KL will be spitting off 600 Million $ cash flow by 2019...they are hot on the trail of the next Fosterville and have a goal of controlling the Pilbara”.
PP says: “Do you know what that means?” [ES joining the board of Novo]. “It means KL is going to own the Pilbara and if all the claims about NOVO are true KL is going to go on a tear to rival Amazon or Apple...only much much faster and higher...oh yeah”.
PP says: "De Grey, Kairos, Artemis....will all be bought out.... KL intends to own it all. The small players in the right places will all become part of KL soon.”
A question for you to ponder. WHY WOULD YOU TOLERATE KLG GAMBLING MONEY TO CONTROL THE PILBARA (or do you trust ES and KLG to gamble better with your money???).
You said of my previous essay regarding the wonderous thinkings of PP, “very creepy”. However, it is all rather obvious: “in matters of fact we believe what we want” [Neitsche] or we can go with that fine Biblical axiom “a double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.”
So PP, some rational answers – Why let KLG gamble in the Pilbara with your money? Why are you gambling specifically with De Grey and Artemis? I’m agog to know.
