Garden Rose, I know you from the Tempus board and I know that you are not trying to bash but rather trying to get some clarification:
Let me try to correct you. In the case of Tempus. First of, do not compare apples with oranges. Johan invested a huge stake in a company that belongs to Dr. Scott Terry, hoping to make nice profit on it, however we do not know what is Johan's experience with Tempus nature of business . He can decide anytime to sell his stake in the company if he feels that he made the wrong investment. With that being said, he has not sold yet, so I would think it ain't over until it's over. I will not yet call it a failure.
In the case of $RELI, Ezra owns the company and judging from what we read about him, he built an empire out of his basement together with his wife and thus far has shown us that he has done the right steps towards making $RELI a success. Hiring a good PR/IR company, a good lawyer etc. He is not going to stay complacent ( his words to me in an email). Judging by the pace he spits out his PR's and acquiring companies I feel that $RELI is a one of a kind investment.
I hope that helps you understand.
