RE:RE:Real deal, or history repeating itself?Wow, amxjavelin, sensitive much? Okay, I'll bite. First off, I'm not blaming Ed or anyone else. I literally said I "
will only have myself to blame if history repeats." I suggest you learn to process without too much emotion; it seems to cloud your ability to read.
Second, not sure why you see this as self-punishment. As Buckwheat55 said in the previous post: you take a chance.., or you don't. The juniors are essentially gambling. I agree with him, it's a gamble of my own making, and I accept full responsibilities for any failures. He's right again, unfortunately no free drinks. However, if you attend some AGMs, you might get lucky.
As someone who lives in Vancouver where hundreds of junior miners have their head offices, you can see plenty of executives living the high life off the industry. These "lifestyle" execs are essentially salesmen and promoters; raising money, paying themselves handsomely, but never actually discovering anything.
On the other hand, you have very earnest technical folks that love the geology, exploration and the discovery process. They prefer looking at rocks vs drinking champagne and whisky of the above group (although might like both).
I put Ed in the latter group. However, when he sees smoke, the hype machine really ramps up. You are never quite sure if the smoke is just smoke, or if fire will follow. I've been buying juniors for almost four decades now, so I've seen a little of everything. If you follow individual managers long enough, you gain some sense of their body language--helping you discern the smoke from the fire.
With this latest discovery on "Nobody Knows", it is my guess that there is definite smoke and a few sparks. Will it be enough for flames or possibly a raging fire? My money is on the table; it's worth the gamble. And if I lose this hand, it's on to the next.

Have a great day!.
