ESS - The 'Resort'

Have been in this company as a 'loooong' term shareholder, right from inception.

Originally had a large holding of PIO shares in my portfolio & initially traded with minor success until the GFC hit. Have since maintained a much smaller holding (in the bottom drawer now) & like a lot of others here, have (forever) wanted to believe that the Board & CEO (both past & present) would actually make 'our' tenements/holdings/minerals into a profitable company. What a total disappointment for all of us, past & present! The term 'Leisure Company' has been bandied about for many years on & off & yes, I totally agree, it really does seem like some sort of a 'Resort'.

Shareholders, (long & short term) have believed the preachings & fundamentals of the company/management, in the hope of each new discovery, being a 'Company Maker'! Pffft! What a misconception thats always turned out to be - for all of us!

While I now have a small parcel of holdings, due to fluctuating world economies/demands, consolidations, poor management (?) & my own neglect, I feel sorry that yet again another year has past & many many shareholders (both old & new) would have lost also! This company now seems to be like an abyss & the money just keeps disappearing!

For those who are still long termers & still holding & those who have recently invested, I wish you all the very best in the New Year in the hope of some sort of a turnaround & some thought given to the 'Shareholders' & not just the company members!

GLTAH's! - Bring on a 'healthy & wealthy' 2021 for all!

PS. - I liken this to a 'fish (shark ) farm' nowadays. Why escape the net, its - sooo easy on the inside!
