heh now if only the ones who started the "bank" panic were actual patrons....that point you are trying to make would be valid. so far i only see very few of them posting here.
Neither of these threads started the bank run.
They were discussing it.

When? its a bank she didn't buy bonds or make an investment she deposited money into a bank account. Are you saying your not a bank? you say account like its a bank. ? Becuase Bank gets people to trust it easier. People trust "A Bank" People dont trust "A High Risk Unregulated Fund run by Amateur Investor" One of the reasons Financial Institutions that arent legally banks in the United States are not allowed to call themselves "Banks". Voodoo has a point in that it was never a Bank , of course. But I dont think people should ignore "bank" was part of the marketing. |

I really don't think they were foolish decisions on his part, he has several hundreds of thousands of US dollars in his pocket

Why are they still waiting? I can answer that no need to bother they are still waiting cause they used up anything he could get rid of now they must wait. How long is a reasonable amount of time to wait? 1 week? past that point now pretty much 2 weeks? 1 month? 1 year? how long does one wait till one decides the money has gone poof? a life time? technically they are still waiting.. |

Well, considering that sensible and responsible financiers understand that it IS, it is no wonder Ginko is in the shape it is now. It's just years late because your nondisclosure has only protected people from seeing the scope of your foolish decisions. I really don't think they were foolish decisions on his part, he has several hundreds of thousands of US dollars in his pocket . ![]() _____________________

Disclosure was never part of the deal. So what? Your Conscience should compel you to give disclosure considering the sums of money involved. You were lauding your conscience, remember? You want people to stop accusing you of either Stealing or Squandering their investment money? Tell them where the f^&*%^*g money is. |

When? As soon as possible. its a bank she didn't buy bonds or make an investment she deposited money into a bank account. It's not a checking account. Any bank account that is not a checking account (and to an extent, even that) is an investment. Are you saying your not a bank? If you want to apply the term "bank" to Ginko Financial or not is irrelevant. you say account like its a bank. ? Not that many years ago, there was a bank run in Argentina. People were unable to withdraw their money, even to pay their bills. Please look it up. Bank runs are a normal aspect of banking and even though many tools have been developed to secure against them, it's still inherent within fractional reserve banking. she's also not asking for interest as of yet this looks like her deposit? you can keep the interest I dont think that is what she is worried about just give her the deposit lol Funny. You're joking right? I'm not sure I can explain something this basic in language that someone unable to understand this on his own would understand. |

Voodoo has a point in that it was never a Bank , of course. But I dont think people should ignore "bank" was part of the marketing. Yes bank was part of the marketing and I agree it was not a chartered bank but even real world trust companies (i have money in one of those have had since I was 17 years old and I'm 43 now..) do stuff responsibly. He didn't call himself even a trust company and the advertising that got me curious clearly had the words bank in them which is what made me curious so i went to press the buttons like everyone else a year ago now. All the people that had heard of ginko called it one. It was touted as one as in a way to gather interest and take money out. I dont remember any withdrawal limits when I went to play with the ginko machine. I had no guts to actually do much with it but I dont even read anything about the risk at the machine and i read the notecards that popped out. About the only intriguing thing was the lotto in any event their money is gone and no time frame is being given for it to be returned. I dont think people are even worried about interest from what I can see I think they are worried about their actual lindens stuck in there IN any event i had an account at an unchartered bank they gave me a passbook and I could write cheques etc and the money was there when I went to take it out.. and this appears to be what he is running an unchartered bank... in any event "can she have her money back" lol ![]() |

You been defending yourself by comparing things to "banks" in the real world... Your not a bank. Your some dude behind a computer playing SL who has got himself in way over his head without a shovel and now you don't know what to do. _____________________

1. Did I say otherwise? 2. How do you define the term "bank"? 3. Does this really matter? For a lot of those who invested with you it does. "Bank" has a specific meaning in the United States. This is a result of the Heavy regulation as a result of the Bank failures during the great depression. In the United States a High Risk Investment Fund can not legally refer to itself as a "Bank." But I think you knew that. |

No, no it couldnt be, its says bank, but hold on, didnt you just say that you didnt say it was a bank? Keep posting, your very entertaining and while your at it learn some maths, i see you couldnt reply to my other post where i pointed out how terrible your maths is. _____________________

Your not responding your trying to cover your ass. Say it for what it is and stop trying to sugar coat everything. Your in over your head. I would bet that most of these people would have alot more respect for you if you would just admit that your in over your head and be done with it instead of attempting to BS them more.
Its like the old saying goes... "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me" Stop BS'ing everyone. They are not going to get their money back. _____________________

If the money actually exists but is held up, he could tell investors where it is.
If he lost the money he could tell investors where he lost it at. The fact he wont do either .. Speaks Volumes. |

What words do your signs have printed below "ginko financial" on the ginko financial sign? I'm not sure what signs you are reffering to, but now that you mention it, yes, I do recall using the word bank in a couple of places. Specificaly I remember having an old slogan saying something along the lines of "Your Second Life Savings Bank". Honestly, I don't think it makes any difference. |
