Ah yes, the self-employed sort you are indeed, tis the one thing a common street beggar may claim with head held high. And tis a good thing HIVorsoreass. It might be difficult to market one's self as a prospective business man to a potential employer with such an ignorant admission floating about. I lost my pants and shirt on MXP no doubt, but I most certainly did not buy the shares knowing that the blokes serving as operator were likely to sink the company into administration. A man would have to be willing to put his soul at hazard to do such a thing. When I initially purchased me shares, Goldman Sachs had a buy rating on the venture, as did many other analysts, including that string-fellow Brendan Long chap who appeared on video each day hyping MXP.
To buy common shares even after MXP was proven to have misled the public as to Uytas would have been financial suicide in me novel. Twas a huge scandal in me book. Indeed, me thinks that the Uytas misrepresentations might make a good securities fraud case for a talented barrister. The Uytas representations made by MXP versus the Uytas reality are two very different animals. I have reviewed investor presentation slides and investor conference call recordings several times now, tis no doubt about it, twas a most nasty deed done by MXP. At a bare minimum, the recklessness exhibited was extreme and unforgivable. If I am sore about it, Sberbank must be absolutely livid, and that Brendan Long chap, who is much respected as an analyst, was made to look a plain fool as well, almost as silly sounding as you HIVorsoreass.
Off to the pub now lads for a pint and to locate a new lady, as me last lady was recently tossed back into the sea by yours truly. A cold and scaly fish she turned out to be.
You are free to go now gents. Carry on.
