Not to overstate the obvious but when you invested in VERB in its previous incarnations it was valued as high as (about) $400m, had no products ready for market, no financial backing (institutions, VCs etc), was traded on the penny stock exchange......you get the picture.
This describes a short sellers dream....and they proceeded to cash in.
The present day iteration of VERB couldn't be more different.
Be consumed with bitterness or learn from your misadventure....your choice.
