I, again, agree that Alan is basing his assumption on HARD DATA, actual data, from the past. Yes, the financials look a bit unusual, but there is nothing usual when pioneering an entirely new market. Bruce is best at handling his business, not Alan.
What isn't clear is how anyone can jump so quickly to "scam" theories - they are just that: theories. Perlowin would be better off smuggling weed again, rather than ruin is chance at being a legitimate businessman, free from incarceration. The logic to take so much risk doesn't ring true.
[Poses rhetorically] Alan, isn't it possible that there is no "K" scam? Isn't it possible that HEMP is an infant company, much like Tesla (also ran by someone who brings the most experience and knowledge to his respective industry, who also loan his company money straight from his own pocket)? Isn't it possible that Perlowin actually knows his business better than anyone, and can see it operated in whatever form, to accomplish his goal of market capitalization. If he converts shares, he still has to sell them, which no one knows is certain or at what time. He could also transfer these shares, to be used as compensation, am I wrong? It seems to be that those that can't understand this business want to hastily jump to scammy conclusions - a show of ignorance, though very studious in practice (commendable).
Let's agree to disagree. Some believe Perlowin is running a self enrichment "scam", while others believe there's a lot of opportunity here, which, in due time, could be a self enrichment venture for everyone involved. Both stories hold as much validity as the other, until the market decides. I see the market is growing.
What seems really odd is how some go to great length fantasizing some radical scheme, which are not FACT. IT'S BOLOGNA! Makes me wonder the true motives of some.
