Ognid the new investor with 4k has just as much potential to double, triple or loose the lot as the person with 50k. So not sure why you canned his/her idea.
I would certainly prefer my chances with STI than the casino, and if purchased even at .018 provides over 200,000 shares.
I certainly would not put $50k on this stock myself as believe it to be to big a risk, but sheesh imagine tripling that? would be nice but could also do ya cash!
