I saw it last night. It was a good episode. It blows my mind that people would take advantage of others like they did!

The show clearly stated they owned the Bat MTI., but it was brief- they showed a few photo's of it and moved on. It went on say one of the brothers was trying to design a bat cave at his house for his cars to get in and out. So the guy loves Batman- was he the one that commissioned the build, or second owner?

Live and learn is all brother.

I am young and got suckered in. I kind of knew it along so I wasn't blown away and risked what I could lose. They did push for a big reinvestment on Jan 1st which I am VERY glad I didn't bite into.

I like to think I am young. LOL...Another 45 I'll be 90. I can tell you from the Stanford deal... If they would have put as much time and effort into the market as they did on the fake paper he would have tripled his money... Just crazy...

Glad you are recovering and did not get hit to hard.
