wouldnt you want to know as much as everyone else does to make it less of a chance of losing your hard earned money. anyone who says they dont mind losing money because they call it a lotto play either is rich already or just lying to themselves.

You and He know just as much as the rest of us do. If you don't like Lottos, Don't play, and don't make comments that you have no clue on. Best bet, for you,, JMHO,, Sell and move on.. Your right,, instead of playin a dollar lotto a day, or week or what ever, some decide to play the game online. I know nothing more than the rest, BUT, I do take my knowledge, and resources and investigate, and research. I will also take the Savvy Business person of myself, and put those conclusions to my gift. Rich??? depends on how you determine it,,,, Lying to myself?,, One thing I can tell you about me,, "I don't Lie" 10 commandants are VERY Close to my beliefs and heart and character.

I also take my Siggy Very True to Being..

This is a game of chance and game of choices....Some win, some lose...I know if we win all will be good...If I lose...I will say "oh well" and NOT blame anyone but me...This took years of experience both getting the shaft and winning in life...It comes with age I think...If you really feel that way then you should IMHO not even be on a message board at all if you are afraid or worried about what someone else says or does or the possibility of influencing you...Everyone here is a big boy and girl and the world is full of good and evil and suckers ....Take what info is useful and throw out the rest...some of us like to joke around too and have I think a sense of humor too...by the way,you should worry about your hard earned money and no one elses...end of story

If anyone here ONLY invested in this stock because of finding this board then they shouldn't be investing IMO.
Seriously why does anyone invest in any BK company? Well I for one have seen rabbits get pulled from the hat. I've seen 1000% gains and chose NOT to take profits. I've seen companies on the brink of BK and turned 800+ into 50K (TTNP) You don't need to be an insider or know one to take a risk. Hopefully anyone intelligent enough to put money into a trading account is also intelligent enough, (or will learn quickly) to have a plan no matter what way the investment goes.
Do I want gains? YES every time and 200%+
Do I get that?!? (LOL) No but I have often enough to know that I can take losses to lower my gainers.
My secret is to not give up, have a plan, and don't let the losses get to me.
Confidence and experience makes you money in the market.
Once you hesitate and second guess, IT'S OVER! If that keeps happening, then you're in a cycle and it's time to get out and walk away. It doesn't matter if it's a hobby, a profession or retirement savings.
If I'm really done with a stock, I sell and walk away. I might check back in a few months just to see what happened, but I'm not around on a regular basis saying things like I see others saying around here. Those that are and say they sold I don't believe. Well maybe they sold and want other to sell so they can play the bounce.
When have we EVER had ANY paperwork not saying commons are wiped out. Actually that's always been the expectation of BK stocks. However sometimes a few bills invested can turn into a more than decent profit. :-D
