Well....I will tell you something that I learned from being a businessman for several years

1. Never trust a businessman. NEVER.

(The advice given to me by a fellow businessman who is in a different league than me, who buys and sells shopping malls, is: TRUST NO ONE. You go out of this world the same way you came in. 'One per box.' I think that is pretty sad if that is your personal life - but if you do business this way, your game will improve. And as for trust - this ESPECIALLY goes for people that you marry - and other family members, INCLUDING CHILDREN. See "King Lear," if you are not familiar with that work by Shakespeare. By the way - I trust my wife COMPLETELY, but we have an ironclad prenup - HER IDEA - and I trust 2 of my 6 children. 3 I do not trust and probably will never trust because they are just too selfish and irresponsible, and one I am not too sure about. That is just LIFE. I love those kids - and I am sure they love me - but they would put me in a home and spend all of my money if push came to shove - and you all know LOTS OF PEOPLE who have done that, I am sure. Heck..some of you reading this probably have already DONE THIS.)

2. Don't ever believe in a penny stock. NEVER. One of them may be a diamond in the rough - but you are being silly thinking that YOU are so special to think you have the ability to pick it out. YOU MAY HAVE THAT ABILITY, and you may have picked out a diamond in the rough! But there are guys who are INTIMATELY INVOLVED with these businesses, know the financials, and have dinner with the officers - and they STILL get scammed. So don't think that they can't scam an investor that they have never met, and only has online access.

-------

I am not trying to be a jerk - but business is cold.

Your game will improve immensely if you believe in these things.

This is just me giving away advice, and we all know what people say about advice - but I will tell you that I made more money this month than I ever made, entirely because of my profits made on the stock market - and NONE of that was with ZVTK, which only lost me money this last month.

(Actually, when I say more money - that does not include real estate investments of businesses that I sold, which made a ton of money, but really the investment was over several years).

-------

Sorry for babbling so much. I just want to give some advice to young naïve people who are business minded to help them from some big falls in the future.

There is a saying: "Smart people learn from their mistakes. WISE people learn from smart people."

(I hear a lot of people take credit for this quote. Don't trust them either!)


-------

I am still VERY HOPEFUL that ZVTK will have a decent 10Q, and that this is going to go places.

However, I also have no problem with being disappointed, because it happens a lot.

I fire a lot of people every year. A lot.

:)

Good luck, everyone!
