If you paid close attention to the other posts I made in that same time period. I clearly stated to all that this strategy should only undertaken under very specific circumstances and potentially requiring enornous patience and resolve.
This is another post from the same time period. Where in this post does it say anything about enormous patience and resolve?
"Again, my suggestion is only that "if you truly believe in $5 in a couple of months"....like I do...then you would be an idiot to not take advantage... I could actually borrow $300,000 for less than a $1,000 in interest cost and stand to make $1,100,000 in profit. The math is no illusion."
