Western Wind Energy Corp > I am surprised there are

I am surprised there are

so many whiners among you. Either decide that it is worthwhile to hang on or sell and go on to the next investment. Jeff honestly explained some of the facts of life and honesty is the best policy and allows you to make an informed decision. But I do agree with you that it would also be nice if there was some disclosure of the number of bidders or the range of prices, assuming these are positives. But I suppose that to get the bidders to sign CAs, WND had to as well.

Ever since the Yabucoa close had to be postponed because of a supplier bankruptcy, it has been obviously something that would extend the time line. The Solar farm had to be redesigned and that had to be re-approved. Anyone who understands the process would be able to figure that out.

On one of the broadcasts, Jeff explained how he asked bidders in the Rothschild process for a tentative bid with and without the Yabucoa close.

He explcitly said that there was a huge difference between the bids. My guess is over $1 per share difference in the buyout price with Yabucoa worth about $100 to $120 million to us after the close.

If you would be happy with perhaps $1 less, and save all that time, I suppose it is your choice and I wish you luck. I will have some patience.

And I think Jeff would like to get this sold for the highest price possible (unless he could buy it all himself and get rid of all us pesky shareholders).

Well agross and Jeff, if I am that annoying to you, make my day. ASAFP. Are you connected ??
Comment by agrossfarm on Jan 14, 2013 7:24pm
You mean that Jeff finds you annoying too? I didn't know that. But I am not surprised to find that other people find you annoying. Regardless, it is for you to judge the risk-reward characteristics of this situation and make the best decision for YOU. Best of luck. And by the way, why do you assume I as referring to you? I didn't put your name in the post about whining.  And I wasn ...more

Ching Sometimes I feel that management just doesn't fully appreciate how patient and understanding their shareholders (owners of the company) are and should be thankful that we shareholders decided to express their confidence in the board and management by voting for them by a large percentage during the proxy battle................... Thanks

Hey agross You know, it makes absolutely no difference to me if you, or others, find me annoying. Why don't don't you put me on IGNORE and join the ONLY OTHER PERSON who has chosen to do so. He/she is very lonely.

CanackShack I do appreciate your concern but I'm happy to say that even at 20 years of age, I'm confidante that my knowledge of the markets as a whole and my intellectual capacity as a person in general, is fare greater than most people that participate in market today and sadly CanackShack I have a feeling that you fall under that category. However I could be wrong but ...more

CanackShack let me make it clear, I do sometimes like to have a little fun on this board. It is nice to have place to talk to and to listen from fellow shareholders. Trust me their is not alot of us around. But don't let that confuse you for of being naive. By the way the BMW is on hold until I'm done with school because by then ill end up buying myself a Porsche instead. Go big or go ...more

Best post in a LONG time.  Todays NR was no surprise.  Everything has been pointing to a late Q1 early Q2 announcement of bid, with another few months for financial close.
