Critics are not "after you" Bossy. Hopefully, they are providing another angle or point of view on your post. For example, I can identify and agree with your current post. However, I do have some qualms about what I believe is a pending collapse of most if not all stock markets, certainly including the Venture. This a legitimate concern, I believe, based on the massive number of articles setting forward this exact scenario. The only thing in doubt to this crowd is the timing. My hope is that we have at least two more years to cash in on the CB-induced recovery by way of enormous stimulus spending and interest rate control. This, to me, is fair comment, not implying your post is faulty in any way, but only the fact that different people have different triggers when deciding the amount of risk they take on.

By the way, this post is intended for clarification, not lecturing. Hope you really enjoy PDAC! It should be great. I am all ready to go but there may be a last-minute hitch, so my fingers are crossed!

Best, O.F.
