    Thanks, Travis,
    My comment is more an uneducated question of a newbie, sorry:
    I wonder what the shareholder has in fact bought?
    I can justify my question by pointing at the fact that recently almost all shares declined tremendously in value, as if people suddenly realized that all they hold is just paper. I can understand that there is tangible value connected to the ownership of shares of mining companies, other commodity companies, REIT shares, shares of companies that pay dividends… But in the case of a consulting firm, even one with booming business ahead, it seems to me that share value is entirely dependent on what other shareholders perceive the value to be. Unless of course, somebody is going to buy the company in question, or desires a seat on the board and tries to get this by becoming a large shareholder. But that does not seem to happen too frequently.

    I have received a teaser from S&A Investment Research regarding “Scam” the richest CEO’s in America.
    Supposedly one can enter a code that gets into the CEO’s corporate account and receive payments from the exact same pool of cash paid out to the CEO in stock options. Can anyone tell me what this is all about and has anyone tried this method of payment.

    Travis: I have been looking at a service called ETFTrendtrading. He (Big A) claims to teach a system of trading ETFs that will produce 6-12% a month on the average.
    Whenever I search on your website I get this page with no appearent connection or info on him. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a better page to ask you this type of question?
