Minerco Inc (MINE)

I lost 20K here.

Yes, I know it was the most idiotic thing someone could do, to invest such a large amount (most of my life's savings at the time), but I was a newb and I saw tremendous growth back in MINE's hayday. I am here to be the cautionary tale for all penny stock investors and people who will go "all in."

I was there during the explosive growth period when this thing was at .045 and the infamous conference call. I bought the product (and really loved it, all of my friends/family did) so I trusted it's potential success. I even saw it in stores. MINE was very real to me.

When everything dropped off after that conference call, I kept buying. I averaged down quite a bit. I was new to all of this and wanted to make a quick buck. It was the biggest mistake (financially) I have ever made.

Money will get made and lessons will be learned, but what really irks me here is how real this was. The conference call. The filings. The product. The stores. The credible partners.

I do not know what happened. Is there legal action that can be taken? I am embarrassed to post all of this, but it is a true story. I assume others share the same experience as well. Make fun of me all you want, but life moves on and I have made money investing in other things.
