RE:Basher " gramly"haha... to be fair, you're posting old news of private placements from May 2016. Literally almost two years ago.
If anyone can be accused of bashing or pumping, it's you.
I used to hold ESM; sold like 6 months ago now or so and got into marijuana stocks - made 5X my investment in 4-5 months. Prior to that, I held ESM for probably close to 4 years, and might have made 20% in that time, if that (although I could have made about 80-90% had I pulled out when it spiked when we first thought the ratification was going through).
Don't get me wrong, I think ESM has potential, but no one knows when they're going to get ratification, or even IF they are going to get it. I'm keeping one eye on ESM, but there is certainly money to be made elsewhere in the meantime. The run up in the marijuana sector is amazing, and we may never see anything like it in our lifetimes again. I can't imagine parking my money in any stock and missing out on that opportunity. Just my thoughts.
