I remember how that movie ends :)

Either way - its the same story - When proved wrong or asked to support claims, quote movies or other irrellevant crap.




If you've been following the thread, it was "I" who was called
the liar, defended myself to prove otherwise, and called him a
liar in response to return the favor... So if anybody needs to do
research, its Jon. Not me.

Get with the program, you are 3 pages behind.

The claim I specifically asked you to support was that I lied you have yet to do that. I posted my support for your lie. Notice I didn't accuse you of lying based on your predictions for trends I accused and supported my claim where you CHANGED the data because that day didn't do what you want. I'm still waiting for you to back up your claim I lied something you have yet to do. And you have 13 minutes left to back up your libel or withdraw it.

Since the state examiner is still here, as a stockholder of the Building and Loan, I'm going to swear out a warrant for your arrest. Misappropriation of funds — manipulation — malfeasance...




Kinda seems like the pot calling the kettle black to me. Actually Jon were it me I would be honorroed to be equated to George in that movie. He made his living honestly by caring for the people around him, trying to do something for all of them. On the other hand the role RBD has chosen for himself made a living by fleecing those who sweat blood trying to make a better life for themselves, while he sat back in his chair laughing, waiting to find good reason to bleed them all dry to line his own fat pockets. Best not bring up a movie that some have watched dozens of times RBD. Seems to me you had the correct roles pciked for the correct people here. Now anotehr movie you might want to watch. " Wall Street" starring Michael Douglas and Charlie Sheen. It kinda all fell down on that market manipulator's head also in that one.

13 Minutes? Hahah,, I'm going to wait 30 minutes
and then tell you where to jump. Because there is no information
that I changed. Everything I've posted is factual to the letter.
Sorry you can't accept the truth...


I await your charge.. I dare you.. I double dawg dare you. lol
I'm calling your bluff little boy.

How old are you people??

OMG... it's like watching kids argue on the playground about who has the better basketball. Who f'ing cares??

The value of the L$ will fluctuate, decline, increase... just like any other economy. It's the nature of the beast. USD does the same damned thing.

RELAX PEOPLE

The change in value if the L$ is something that you all should have expected and been prepared for. Whining because your business practices aren't all that grand isn't going to get you back your loss in value.

It's very simple... OMG... so simple...

1) Diversify your interests... if all your eggs are in 1 basket... and you drop it... your pooched.

2) High risk investments are SHORT TERM. If you plan on holding on to 2 million linden... YOU ARE GOING TO LOSE MONEY. Keep your assets liquid, or invest in something that will maintain it's value seperate from the L$... like USD... in other words... cash out... do not horde. Whether you throw your money back into the economy, or horde it... the value of the L$ will change one way or the other.

3) Grow some sense of responsibility. If you lose money... it's your fault for not paying attention and being open to the change in the market. There is no such thing as a stable market. If there were... day trading would not exist.

You know... maybe it is about time LL introduces taxes into SL. It would increase the value of the L$... *AND* it would prevent people from holding on to excessive amounts of L$ with the hopes of controlling the value.

Actually the fact that it does swing in value is not a bad sign. Changes in value, fluctuations are the sign of an active economy. As far as taxes LL tried that one once it is my understanding and it just about ended in disaster. Not a good idea. The answer is very plain, stimulate the economy in world you will also stimulate it outworld. Unfortunately those who could do so are too busy crying doom and gloom to create something constructive..instead of trying to create a panic like the one IRL in the USA that resulted in the great depression.

LOL - love the pic...

Some people do this for a living Nala... or at least try to. There is actually a decent amount of money to be made in SL, if you are smart about it. Your play money is another person's paycheck.

There is nothing wrong with that, in fact, it's encouraged by LL. Helps keep the economy moving... allows for motivation to find new and better things to see and do in SL. Of course... some people want get rich quick schemes... and well... we all know how that goes.

Wooo hooo... I'm sure you'll be steaming tonight knowing
that you went to all that trouble to report some gibberish, only
to never receive a response from LL and be dogged by me
without any recourse.. hahahahah

Well there is a lot of conflicting information here.

First of all I have no doubt that RBD short term views on the Linden are correct. Thats fact, any fool can look at a share or currency price graph and note that a rising volume of trades together with a weaker exchange rate mean but one thing. People are selling more than they are buying, period.

Why, any number of reasons but in the end it comes down to one thing, people believe that deep down where it really counts they have no or very little faith in the current value of the Linden Dollar.

On the other hand Globespan Capital Partners punted in $11 million dollars in the last few weeks, presumably Linden Labs needs the money and (like in the UK) Globespan got either equity or assets to secure their stake....one would have thought.

http://www.globespancapital.com/index.cfm/ContactUs

But both this venture finance company and Linden are not PLCs (trade on the NYSE) so it is difficult for me to look at accounts and make any rational judgement

Also the US taxation system is not one I am familiar with, so unlike say in the UK where we have EIS or VCTs I am not in any position to judge if it is a type of taxation mitigation scheme.

Finally there is the separate issue of Linden Labs vi-a-vis the platform users. It is quite possible most of the platform users go skint BUT Linden (and Second Life) as a company remain quite healthy financially.

Like RBD (I hope) my own financial commitment to Second Life is small enough to write off to both a tax loss and the experience of multi level platforms without worry

Views anyone?

PS Lewis, if you read this and reply please don’t go on about this being a game that we should all play without any financial reward. Try to comment “outside the box”

Careful. There are bigger fools who look at a declining chart
and believe its actually improving. I don't want to mention any
names, but they are the fuss bunch. lol


Lucky for us, we can accept the truth, whereas others are blind
to the world around them...

RBD, I have been there in 2002 with your Dow. Bloody thing went down all year, only things that made money was gold, commercial property, and corporate bonds. And in 1998, and 1987 :-)

But....you are US based, be interested in your views on the other points I made in my last post
