Re: [Mind's Eye] Re: getting to the positive

I know Neil  it is but a pittance  that is what so funny about it..  I think the problem lies in the short term,,   Maybe that is what it should be called is the pittance fund.. 
Money is a problem because it is guided by people who's interests is self centered.  creating the pittance fund,, then we have the time and possibility to get it to grow..  and provide the long term guidance to make it successful over 500 plus years where it would reach the size..  at witch time the pittance fund would be as powerful or more powerful than the other markets..  it takes for sight..  
What I am saying by putting up my 100 Euro is that our combined wisdom and knowledge  exceeds that of the normal public. it would be chance to put our theories into practice.. Even if we fail we have tried and can not be faulted for that.. but I do not think that will happen,,

pockets, under your mattress and in current accounts is dwarfed by the
same currency in the derivatives and other shadow markets.  What we
should focus on is how we can build through effort and organisation.
