Great. Another hard deadline. So....let me ask you, personally, if nothing comes out tomorrow, will your position change? Or will you find some numbskull excuse to re-justify?
I own A LOT of shares. If this only goes to its proper valuation, my family won’t have to work for 4 generations deep.
And I’m holding. For now. The bogus noise (from BOTH sides) is stupid.
I have two problems - first, why keep mentioning dates and deadlines if there’s such an established track record of not meeting them. The excuse for WHY is irrelevant. Steven - will you effing STOP giving hard deadlines for Christ’s sake?!? It’s not a terribly hard lesson to learn. Second, why aren’t things that Steve DOES have control of not getting done? The yield sign. That’s firmly in his lap. First it was “they want to get paid”. So PAY them!! You’re a CEO, not a child in the sandbox. Then it was our lawyer needs to send a letter. So SEND it!! Then we were told it would be done last week. Still waiting. Pick up the phone, call the attorney, tell him you want it done by the end of business today or you’ll have another attorney do it. Not taking care of this when a) it’s 100% on you and b) you, yourself, offered the deadline of when it would happen and c) allowed that deadline to pass without a single word of explanation makes me wonder what the hell else is - or isn’t - going on behind the scenes.
These are not hard things to do. I don’t really give a damn about excuses. So far as I can see, Steve’s swing is great. He’s aiming for the fences. But unless he figures out his follow-through - and QUICK - the ball will never get past the infield. So far, I’ve been buying for 2 years and I’ve seen no home runs. Just a lot of really well driven foul balls.
It takes a LOT to piss me off. But I’m getting there.
I’ll be buying when this goes to trips. And it will.
