The company whose shareholders were better than its management
DOUBT+ FEAR + LAZINESS = BAIL OUT!
This is yourinvestment... work for it, protect it and don't panic on the words ofvery shadowy figure that "has yourbest interest in theirheart". Consider that one factor: Someone youhave never met, isnot a member of your family, is now, out of thegoodness of their hearts- GIVING YOU FREE ADVICE (that you didn't askfor). It's a no brainer.They have motives $$$$$$$$$$$$.
Lesson 5: Bashers know YOUCAN'T VERIFY THEIR STATEMENTS. That's why theymake the vague statements they do. They rely on you being to lazy toresearch their droppings other than to scan the board for others opinions.This is particularly dangerous when you consider that Bashers workin packs and often validate and back upeach others nonsensewith what appears to be "innocuous and unsolicited"verificationby comrade Bashers. Let's face it, we are all conditionedto "believe"everything we see in writing. If others by virtue of their"posts"also confirm this belief, then we are subconsciously doomed toswallowthe hook, line and sinker... Basher- 1 Honest Investor - 0
Lesson 6: The Bashers PLAYON YOUR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE.Theycan lie about information and you won't know the difference (unlessyouhave done your own DD on the company and know the truth and facts).
Lesson7: Bashers play on your lack of patience. You have helda stock for a while.You knew it will be a big stock someday, but the BASHERCAN GET TO YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE TIRED OF WAITING FOR YOUR GAIN.That'swhen the Basher is best. You are tired. You have forgotten thegoal forthe stock was to hold it for one year. The Basher is bothersome,so youdump it on a bad day. Some others also dump. Then you get madfor yourloss and return to let everyone know how mad you are. Thenyou turn intoa semi-Basher as well. THEBASHER HAS WON, AND GAINED A NEW ALLY - YOU!
Lesson 8: BRINGTHE PRICE DOWN. That isthe Basher's job.The truth is not important. Lies are the norm. Postcontinuously on theboard every day. They are trying to scare the newbiesthat are justinvestigating a stock. They are trying to wear down thefaithful longson the board and gain free reign and control.
