NorthWest Biotherapeutics Inc (NWBO)

[Johnni]

I was expecting that comment. That ship sailed a decade ago.


“Johnni, you should not invest in what you do not understand or what you do not believe in. This investment is not for everyone. No one is trying to convince you to invest NWBO”


I invested while my husband was finishing up rounds of temodar. We had consulted with neuro oncologists at a couple big hospitals and at the NIH — anywhere we could get a foot in the door. Most had barely even heard of cancer immunotherapy, and all said it was bunk, but they didn’t have any better alternatives. So I put a little cash into NWBO, thinking of it as a charitable donation. But as time went on, I added a little more, then the stock crashed by a couple orders of magnitude from $12 to nearly $0.12, so I averaged down, and so on.

Last year I sold most of our stake and invested it elsewhere, but I am still holding on to 5,000 shares because, despite my skepticism, I still have hope.

Investing in NWBO doesn’t have to be a dichotomy. I don’t have to be either with you or against you. I can have both hope and skepticism. And both can be well-informed!
