I appreciate some of the positivity shown by yourself and other posters re AGM preso and NWE in general.

Lets bring it back to us as individual for a minute. The idea of investing is fairly selfish for most of us...its to make money. 2 factors then come to mind. How much will I make and over what period of time.

So, my question to PM would be.

Peter, based on the facts we do have to date, it would seem that NWE will need more money, more time and therefore more dilution, which only reduces the potential returns if/when they do come. Peter, please convince me why I should put any of my hard earned into NWE over any other listed company on the ASX. Currently the NWE share price is 1.6c after a recent CR at 3c and under pressure IMO. Whilst I appreciate that shale gas is relatively new and things can take time how do you see investors actually making money (or regaining lost money) in NWE given the high costs and the lengthy time frames involved?
