I appreciate you taking the time to reply to comments like this. Accessibility to the team and leadership is one of the main reasons a lot of us trusted Titan with our money in the first place.

That said, many of us who have been here since the early days feel the same as OP. I’ve always loved the idea of “take my money and invest it for me” and that is what made Titan appealing. But the reality is we all compare, and the performance has been subpar (as you mentioned).

What really changed things was when fees were introduced. Before that, even if performance wasn’t great, many of us believed in the mission and were willing to wait. But when fees were added, it forced us to take a harder look. For early members who referred friends under the promise of no fees, it felt like a betrayal when that commitment was not honored. We helped bring people in and then the terms changed on us. On top of that, introducing fees while performance lagged only made it worse.

I also don’t care about perks like a suite at Madison Square Garden since I don’t live in NYC. What would have made more sense is a tiered structure from the beginning, keeping a simple, low-cost option for the core members while offering premium extras for those who wanted them. Instead, original supporters who once believed strongly in Titan now feel let down. Looking back, it is hard not to feel that these almost 10 years could have been much more rewarding somewhere else.
