1) Fair question. I got caught ages ago and subsequently wrote off the investment but hung in there to see what happens and have watched the hopeful hype over the gold assets but could never understand it (was/am I the only one in step?) However, the PUA opportunity encouraged me to buy some Options with the hope that perhaps I'll eventually come out in front.

2) Mismanagement writ large is what has made me "bitter" and, no, I have no idea what drove the high cost but perhaps some "midnight shopping" might have been going on - I don't know, I've never visited the site so that might be an unfair remark, surely security should have been high on everyone's mind. Perhaps the A/Reports for the 2008-2011 years might give a clue.
