Dev vs. Ainsworth

A promotional CEO has always been a hallmark of junior mining companies and Dev is no exception.  There are tons of competing projects in the junior mining space, and to have the chance to explore them and grow them money has to be raised.  Sitting back and waiting for the money to come to you doesn't work for junior miners.  I get the part where all the old ESO/AMW shareholders have an allegiance to Ainsworth and don't like Dev or his style.  I get that part but what good does it do as promoting is the major part of the job.  The only reason I'm an AMW investor is because Dev was able to get some media exposure for FIS and through FIS I learned of AMW.  Until then I had no idea what or who ESO was about, and I probably speak for many investors in that regard.  
I'm also guessing that there are AMW shareholders who haven't incresed their position in months but want and expect to see their share value increase.  Circulating all the existing money between existing shareholders doesn't accomplish that.  New money from new investors has to come in.  Now ask yourself if Dev or Ainsworth is the more capable person of doing the hustling part of a junior mining CEO.

If Dev is out there promoting FCU, it is not because  he looking out for the interests of FCU shareholdrs. He couldn’t give a rats patootie about the FCU shareholder. He is only interested in securing his next gig (cozying up to Lukas Lundin at DML) and lining his own pockets.

Zenj, you absolutely nailed it. I have worked for some of the people you mention. They could give 2 sh&%s about anyone but themselves there cronies and there bank accounts! Always seem to be chasing them to get the last payment.
