Wow you must be a deep DD digger. Last year, I was on a quest to find the reason Mr. Huff always seemed to finance deals with Paul Taboada, once with Charles Morgan Securities that got hammered with legal suits, and developed a bad rep.
The exact time frame that Taboada left Charles Morgan Securities and went to Fordham Financial Management, Gtel moved also. At the time, I was going nuts with all the high price funding deals Mr Huff made, like Rocky eluded to, and couldn't understand why my hero, would deal with (IMO) one who was a less than above board (rep wise) person. It looked like he was getting bad deals IMO.
But as usual, then, I had no idea what it took to raise money, for Gtel, to fund Mr. Huff vision and how far & hard he would work to succeed! He did what he had to do, to reach his goal. Just like the unfinished (as promised) Sanswire one unveiling. I'm sure he didn't want to let down shareholder, but getting the strat into the investing public's eyes NOW was the goal and he accomplished his goal again. He has done many things which up set shareholder and always ended up helping them, by reaching HIS goals, NOT shareholders. I now know, what ever MR. Huff does is fine with me. I mean he gets the best new employees from 10 times larger companies, creates partnership & buy outs from out of the blue, all while having 4, 5,6 balls in the air at the same time.
When all these balls (stand alone core business rev streams, exchange move,& financial goals), come together some time in 2006. No one can knows where Gtel will end up. But I know I'll be there with him!
Because he's in business to succeed, not move PPs for shareholders. Knowing the first will take care of the second was the best thing I've learn from him!
