In mid 2016 investors in TFS/QIN 2002 sandalwood project were offered solid returns on their investment one year ahead of the expected harvest of the 2002 project trees. If TFS/QIN was a true Ponzi scheme as Glaucus believes, why would the company offer the investors in trees an early payout on their investment? Wouldn't it make sense for a Ponzi scheme to delay any required repayment (and certainly not bring repayments forward)?
