That’s pretty much, in a round-about way, what I asked Jim Puplava (JP) on today’s FSN Q-line, minute 39:36.

My question had to do with how commonly gold explorer management benefits at the expense of its shareholders when it makes a buyout deal, despite laws and regulations to the contrary.

Jim gave a number of examples, including what Yamana management recently did at the expense of its shareholders. And, referring to those examples, he said,

“It’s legal” and, “It happens all the time.”

That said, my question to you is, what, if anything, should I ask JP as a follow-up to today’s Q-Call?

Should I ask him if there’s ANYTHING we could do to protect ourselves from what might be an unpleasant inevitability that we shareholders may face as Tyhee could be moving closer to a possible M&A?

What would you ask?

Or, should we just keep quiet and be resigned to bending over and taking it as it comes?

Just asking?
