Oh you must lead a very sheltered life. Lil old Bernie is only one small example of the character flawed exec that run the companies in this country and the world. Most if not all have shady pasts that you have no idea about. How do you think they got to where they are, because they are sweet gentle people.
When I buy a stock I always check out the character of the CEO, CFO and alike....NOT!
I buy a stock for only one reason and one reason alone: TO MAKE MONEY!
This is only my opinion. You should research before you invest to limit your risk. When you invest in pinks its all risk and most fail, Never risk more the 10% of your holdings in pink sheet stocks!
