Gattes12, thanks for taking the time to write down your concern about the ownership of GGLB. I am not trying to be disrespectful to you in any way, but information derived from Wikipedia is extremely unreliable. While I was doing research for my doctoral dissertation a couple of years ago, I asked my doctoral committee if I could use and include information I found in Wikipedia, and they overwhelmingly said "absolutely not". Their reasoning was that information found in Wikipedia is usually not "substantiated" by any reliable bibliographic source, and most bibliographic sources that Wikipedia does identify are either 1. independently (sometimes biased) researched information, also without any substantial scholarly bibliographic references; and 2. simply provides very "basic" information that can be partial, incomplete, and/or inaccurate. In a nutshell, Wikipedia is nothing more than an online Encyclopedia of general information that really has a very limited screening process pertaining to the accuracies of it's information. Having said that, I do not discredit your concern, because it is a viable one. Companies this small can exist (or not exist) in many different ways, we all know that especially when it comes to sub-penny companies. But what I find comfort in is that I have clearly seen and found through my own research (which I know is not official) that GGLB is "managed" by EC3Global. To me this is great, because as a marketing company grows (GGLB), there has to be reliable, thorough management, and sometimes this responsibility is "outsourced" to another entity. To give you an analogy, let's say I own 20 rental properties and my real estate investment company is called "Doctor AC Property Investments", well in order for me to have the time and energy to continue buying more real estate, meeting new people in the real estate world, etc, I really want to have a real estate management office handle all of the paper work, collection of rent, etc. The real estate management company (let's call them "Landshark Real Estate") is paid (by me) a certain percentage (it's usually between 15%-20%) to do all of the administrative paper work so I have the time to aggressively pursue more real estate deals. THIS IS EXACTLY THE RELATIONSHIP I SEE BETWEEN GGLB and EC3GLOBAL! I think it's smart, efficient and wonderful! smile Peace and respect to you Gattes......
