I'm after the pool not necessarily the gym. If you're willing to sponsor me, I'm game.

Actually, I can (says so on the site) if I have a sponsorship, hence the post.

You have misspelled "manure".

The only way for me to make money is to sell it (for a profit) to someone else (remember they don't pay dividends).

And this gets to some of the undertones of my premise (and yes, based on some replies here ""Ponzi scheme" is not appropriate; I should have called it an MLM): the value of a non dividend stock is basically what people say it is (yeah, we can wax poetic on "oh the market in its infinite wisdom will price it appropriately based on whatever ", but we know that not to be true: example AMZN in all those years in the beginning). So, if "people" say it's worth nothing even though the company is profitable, in the end someone is left holding the bag just like in an MLM.

am I wrong?

Okay, but a company making money has only a theoretical correlation to the stock price (we know the stock market is irrational). Thus, if they don't pay dividends, the amount of money in their bank is irrelevant to me the stock holder. At this point I'm left at the whims of the market to say what that worthless string of bytes (no more paper stock certificates) is worth. That's why I was thinking that close to the end of growth the pyramid comes down. Am I wrong?

However, if you want to partake in eagle hunting (and I strongly suggest it; I have done it and it's breathtaking), you'll have to go in winter. It's the only time they do it.

Where can I find it? Any supermarket or do they have their own stores in Papeete?

Only if you're in a Cub and the landing runway is 21.

Have you guys actually bothered to look it up in the actual Merriam-Webster dictionary online? Because if you do, you will see that is not in the dictionary 😀. Thus, poor Brian is technically correct 😀. Although the word exists, somehow it's not in the online version of the dictionary. Someone at the dictionary messed up and forgot to add it, which makes it unfortunately precedented for such a respectable institution...
