From: John Horner Well on Ginko I paid in $L10 and then tried to withdraw (to verify), they have a queue system in place and I am at (earlier about number 2300 in the line and $L 16 million waiting to be paid out.
Re the WSE...There are more people involved, its in the worlds first life media, I still have big reservations, I still think potential dishonesty is an issue, BUT.... I am inclined to think Luke is an honest and smart guy trying to run a business. Super smart people usually realise it's better to run a straight house. But do your research with care, my own experiance is with first life financial products NOT Second Life Ok, First life media is interested in the WSE. I Understand there Is a Connection between WSE, and Ginko (One or more Board members being shared or something). If the connection does indeed exist then it won't be long before RL media also focus's it's attentions on Ginko, and the thing is, when They do, the RL authorities usually aren't far behind them if it's an investigative piece "Uncovering Corruption". Interesting things to come. Angel. |

From: Uvas Umarov Hey John
I've been reading your posts on the WSE for some time with interest. Didn't you come to the conclusion that it is an extremely risky investment?
What makes you want to take another look?
By the way the deposits seem to be dropping fast today according to Ginko's website. He must have been able to liquidate some assets I guess. By the way, the payouts aren't moving at all. It was at #297 at 11:00pm est last night and is now at #298 3:35 est. At the current rate, I'll have passed away and my kids MIGHT see my withdrawal. Not too quick and I seriously doubt that anyone has liquidated assets to cover the requests for withdrawal. Why give his gains away. Nah he'll keep what's he's taken, trust me. |

Hmm 16million Linden missing, sounds like a top notch conman to me, to rip people off $59k USD over 3 years. How much work would he have put into it? 1 hour a day, 8 hours? Did he have staff too?
I guess how much profit were people promised and never recieved too you could add that to the $59k.

Angel. Yes I agree with that. I cannot endorse any SL "investment". I only said I was minded to revisit the WSE. At the moment any money put into anything could be as good as burning it |
