I view it this way. Any celeb with hundreds of millions to squander who wants into the reefer business will hire consultants who will direct them to people who know what they're doing. Otherwise, they're flying blind. Plenty of crooks in the legal reefer business.
The Nasdaq's third tier, the AMEX can be just as bad, and last but not least, the OTC, it seems, are financial venues that reward failure.
