Pennypicks and all,
Glad to add when and where I can.
My thoughts as we go forward.
The emotions here are raw for many who do not wish to lose, have lost by selling or are just frustrated. I understand your emotions and feelings. No one wants to lose at any time.
I feel for you if your emotions and concerns are at an all time high. No one cares to be on the grey sheets but at this time we are there.
Yes IMHO Jim does not hit his targets always as we all are aware. Does that mean this is a scam or that he is ripping us off. IMHO NO NO NO.
You have a choice as an investor in CKYS. Either sell your shares if you believe that you will not see an increase in price in the short or long term.
Hold your shares ifyou believe things will improve.
Buy more shares if you believe that these prices are better than they were about two weeks ago or before and you see greener pastures ahead.
The thing you do not want to do is buy into emotions of the market or someone else putting doubt or confusion in your head. Some on this board and others just love to do that and they are either doing it to buy lower or they just have fun jerking other peoples chains.
Calm yourself and ask yourself why you invested in the first place.
Look around on the boards and find safe people that are solid and are thinkers and have done DD. If you have someone who is not an investor or who does not own shares trying to whisper in your ear to cause doubt and fear in the name of DD you might want to change seats so they can't sit next to you.
Don't make it personal and attack or be attacked. Don't respond to those who are trying to get a response out of you. Don't post to them if you cannot stay under control.
If you lose control you may lose your investment because you may do something that later regret.
Stay calm, drink ice tea like I do or something else that you enjoy.
Sometimes its a marathon and not a sprint. Let the company prove itself. You don't need someone to tell you that the company is a failure or a success the company will prove that in due time.
Some want to buy cheaper so they spread fear and doubt by bringing up old information. Hey good DD is fine but years old information which is not repeated is just that old information. Sift thru facts and make decisions yourself and don't let someone convince you good or bad by their thoughts or information.
Does Jim have skeletons in his closet. Well yes and I bet those who are shaking those skeletons have some too if someone were to look in their closet.
The past is the past. IMHO CKYS rose from a basement company to where we are today. Did it make some misteps along the way...You bet it did. And it may in the future too. All companies do that. Its called growing companies and they learn from their mistakes.
The funny thing about all this is some will continue to try to push those missteps in our face or in CKYS and Jim's face to prove something.
Ok you got it out in the open and proved that Jim won't be up for an Academy Award for Sainthood...so what. Neither will I and I'm not even the Ceo of anything. I think Jesus was the only perfect man so thats a closed issue in my book.
People in glass houses throw stones because they can. They want to tear apart a person because IMHO they do not have a good self image about themselves or they think its a cool game to dog pile on someone as long as its not them.
Some just like to stir poop until it stinks and then stand back and watch the ruckus. They get off on things like that.
Stop reacting and act. Buy,sell or hold but do it because you want to not because someone else is feeding you their stuff.
Ask yourself this question when you post or buy,sell or hold. Am I reacting or getting offended because of something someone else is offended about or am I thinking for myself and making my own decisions.
Stop letting others think for you if that is what your doing and think and act for yourself. Stop letting emotions get to you.
I remember something Cowboy said to this board in a post a while ago. He talked about when most do not like a stock, he is buying and when people are loving the stock, he is selling or words to that effect.
Look around you and ask yourself what the sentiment and emotions toward the stock are presently.
I wish us all well whether I know you or not or whether I agree or disagree with you or not.
I am drinking ice tea as I post this and couldn't be calmer....ok blockman give me that ice tea back.....boy...some people....smile.
Be blessed and enjoy your evening and remember...life is about family, friends,loved ones and how we treat others.
If our actions here because of either losing or making money on a stock changes who we are for the worse then we have forgotten the golden rule. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
I am locked and loaded and feel good about things. I hope you all are able to see things more clearly when you allow your emotions to not run you all over the place.
Blessings
Brent
