Didn't really intend to offend anyone - no matter what your salary you have to live within your means - I put money into POET I could afford to lose - if it works out great - if it doesn't I'm back to the salt mine.

Trust me I'm far from paternalistic and shouldn't be giving anyone financial advise - but the message kind of hit home with me - I recently had to purchase a bigger place to live and I found myself brining into consideration how much POET would be worth into what I could afford - I had to smack my self to stay level headed.

Just don't think anyone should be basing foreseen life expenses on what a venture stock could be worth. I hope it works out for all of us (and beleive it will) but wouldn't want to see anyone put out by it - except maybe a few on SH board (nah I can't even say that ;)

Peace and Love,
