I've made the mistake before of claiming to be able to hold my own around true professionals. They hurt me. Bad... :lolhit: :drink:

I mean, this wasn't just someone that read a lot of google searches and became wise. I'm just thinking that, regardless of his personal actions, he's certainly nobody's fool off the street.

True that. Not many of the folks here had as much face time as a few of us did.
When someone tells you directly to your face that a venture took 120k to set up and get running, when you already know the answer is 10k of borrowed money, its time to exit stage left.
