No you didn't use the 'c' word but you stated that you agreed with the poster who did which, or did you say it was hard to disagree? Anyway the post has gone so let's not argue about that, I'm glad you have since said that there's no evidence of it. I would also point out that the poster who did make this allegation was wrong in stating that LR and MC have no 'skin in the game'. They do, not as much as I would like but they do. They also took pay cuts in return for options. I think MC takes £100,000 LR £75,000 the average salary for a CEO on AIM is £325,000 just for context. That will of course include much better performing companies where a high salary could be considered more deserving so I'm not saying they are underpaid by any means. Personally on the evidence I have I think LR's salary is about fair but I don't really know what Myles does for his £100k. I can't argue against the fact we have a poor track record of raising funds with equity at low values but operationally the work has been excellent and I believe the value will come. I think anyone who has spoken to LR knows that there is a much more feisty and energetic character there than perhaps comes out in the interviews. I genuinely don't believe he is in this to maintain an easy lifestyle, obviously he wants to make money and the really big bucks will come to him if he delivers this. I also think he is driven by the professional industry kudos of making a mine at Toral a reality. The 'lifestyle' thing is pretty subjective concept so I'm not expecting to change your opinion, which of course you are entitled to.
