That's exactly how pos-land operates louisa...seen it a thousand times over the past 20 years when casino table hopes and dreams don't measure up to the eventual cold harsh market dynamic realities.

This has never been about the product working or how hard the company is trying to expand their retail footprint.

It has always been about how much organic traction could be gained in product sales balanced against ALL the always in motion underlying market dynamics that govern the eventual valuation metrics that get applied to all pos-land tables/stories once their initial hype wanes>>>

Wishful thinking is the formation of beliefs and making decisions according to what might be pleasing to imagine instead of by appealing to evidence, rationality or reality.

Studies have consistently shown that holding all else equal, subjects will predict positive outcomes to be more likely than negative outcomes

“the fantasy cycle” ... a pattern that recurs in personal lives, in politics, in history – and in storytelling.

When we embark on a course of action which is unconsciously driven by wishful thinking, all may seem to go well for a time, in what may be called the “dream stage”.

But because this make-believe can never be reconciled with reality, it leads to a “frustration stage” as things start to go wrong, prompting a more determined effort to keep the fantasy in being.

As reality presses in, it leads to a “nightmare stage” as everything goes wrong, culminating in an “explosion into reality”, when the fantasy finally falls apart.

WNBD- Hopes and Dreams

If coupled with perseverance, hopes and dreams might become something more.
The drive and determination of the CEO and others cannot be denied, so maybe....just maybe this could be a success. I sure hope so.-TB


We all have dreams, or at least, the ability to dream.
History has proven that people don’t become successful overnight.

From the Wright brothers, we get airplanes.
Leonardo Da Vinci dreamt of becoming a great artist.
Napoleon spent time leading and managing his troops and conquered Europe in his mind.
Henry Ford gave us the chance to own cars.
