Capital Exchange Archive » SLW buyback today Re: SLW buyback today |
|
| I guess there is some strategic desicions behind this conversion and the buy back. But nothing declared what i know of. Thats why i am a little curious why the buy back started exactly 1/3. And also why wasnt the divident from SLcapex payed before the buyback so all of the remaining SLW stockholder could get some divident. Thats whats was announced earlier. Waiting with the SLcapex divident so it should benefit all SLW stockholders. This way the big and long time investors had advantage of this buy back as well. Less shareholders to split the dividents. And those who really needed their cash and just have to sell ... lost again. If the strategic is to make as much money as possible for the big investors in SLW , SLCAPEX i can really understand this process. |

| No Sully . You are wrong. Its about communication and to keep what has been said. Not saying anything, isnt good either. My post above wasnt to blame Arb or anyone. I only wanted to share my thoughts. And maybe make other have some different perspective. I guess my experience from managment and making up strategic plans are different from US ppl. Probably difference in culture as i am sure you know. There is nothing that creates bad environment to run business and company such as manipulation, hiding decisions or strategic plans. Those who is treatend that way will use the same behavior. And in the long term the business will go down. Saying one thing and doing something else isnt the right way to create trust among the majority of investors and traders. To tie some big investors up involved in a few companys make them trust, but not the others. And creating such a powerful "brain-trust" will not make ppl run to the exchange either. I hope the buyback continues so my new friend, whom i adviced to put in sell order for 1.03, will get her stocks sold in the end. And i also hope the buy back will reward those who followed those advices SOOOO MAAANNNYY told everybody, to not sell . Wait for the buyback and you will get your money back whitout a loss !!! Do you think there will be money enough to buyback for 1.03 Sully ? |

| Sully I think you missed my point. As far as i have seen Arb, is nice to ppl speaking. He have a certain attitude to be polite towards customer , and i certainly appreciate that. But thats not the point. There is different kind of leaderships and that what i tried to point out and also what doesnt work out in the long term. "you never would admit that the guy got handed a pile of SHIT unexpectedly". You are right Sully. He/they got a pile of shit to handle unexpectedly. I am a little concerned about you using "shit" to describe money. Because its all about depositors money and it was from the beginning. And to use others money includes some responsibility. And riskmanagment. If i am to to deposit my money somewhere i wouldnt use a company who thinks of my money as a "pile of shit" when some problems occur. Did he steal or do all this on purpose? HELL NO" you say. Whether he did on purpose or not is irrelevant. By your remark i was hit by another question. How can you tell ? What do you know about that and others dont ? Even to "handed a pile of SHIT unexpectedly" needs to be handled correctly. Even more carefully an other pile of shits when its about money. I am sure Arb and his associates had a lot of job done. I never doubt that. If you backread the posts as you said you should have noticed most what is written isnt about Arb as a person. And i am also sure Arb have had some meetings to discuss this matter before he took action. And i am also sure of this ppl being his associates. And a disclosure of who they were and those persons stockholdings would show there was a conflict of interests among those associates. And Pleease . Don use arguments as "this is a game" when ppl loose money. If it is a game why not hand over the money at once ? Why dont you join Arb and use your money to pay depositors ? Its only a game and so are your money... as to speak. Shouldnt make a difference to you !! its only a game. Maybe i have missed something here but is this correct ? 1. Conversion of cash balance. 2. SLW owns SLCAPEX shares and being mjority owner of SLCAPEX. 3. Statement that dividents from SLCAPEX from january was delayed so it would benefit SLW stockholder. 4. Decision of giving away 1/2 of SLW:s shares in SLCAPEX to an employee of SLCAPEX( very unsusual in RL company . Usually employees are payed by the company which hire them). 5. 1/2 of the dividents from SLCAPEX was taken away from SLW stokholder by the decision described above. 6. By taking away 1/2 of the shares from SLW , SLW lost control over SLCAPEX. 7. Buyout before the divident from SLCAPEX are payed. Meaning less receiver of dividents. Larger amount to split among remaining stockholders. I hope i got this right. If not , i appologize. Sean who is quite nice to ppl. |

| Well said Xavier. Maybe some companys consider and auditor to check the bookkeeping. And try to find solutions of the problem which according to you seems to be NOT money enough to pay for the review. To me, and i am sure many others, an auditor really make sense. What else can provide us that information so we can have faith and trust to the public traded companys in SL ? Any suggestions Xavier ? Maybe for a start, not every month. Maybe once a year or whatever. Maybe there is someone within the game , autorized of course, who have the interest of this. "If you want real-life protections, you should save yourself the heartache of Second Life... cash out your Lindens and invest your USD at a brokerage." To make it easy for me i split in World users to 2 groups. 1. Spend a lot of money to camp or earn money in other ways such working. They dont wont to loose their money they worked so hard for ( or spending 1000 of hours). But thats the group who most often loose. 2. The other group is those who take advantage of the instable SL economy. And those dont spend so much time earning money within the game in camping or working. They have money enough to buy L $. And invest for example 10 000- 50 000 US $. I belong to the first group, but i havent lost so much yet. But i would hate to loose what i have earned so far. And i dont have or had any SLW shares either. I wonder who is against transparency ? Which group claims this is only a game. Take it or loose it. Which group earns money and defend the last issues. I still believe something has to be done to show that public finacial sector in SL will be developed in a good direction. There is a company which so far have managed very good. If anyone is interested you can take a look... They even put together a committee of depositors to work with. And anyone could nomminee a person to vote for on the webb. They dont use auditors as far as i know, but doing their best for trasparency. http://whitfield-hastings.com/news.php |

| I dont agree with you iVentures. Nothing of those factors used in RL as PE or PS (which are better for SL companys), are usable for SL. And making due diligence ? On what ??? The bokkeeping companys provide ? Yes. Thats possible. And most companys probably provide accurate numbers. But how do we know ? Recently POW was a subjekt for review. And as i understand the bookeeping was questioned. Do you really think thats the only company which, according to SLCAPEX, cant keep it separated . There is no guarantees whatsoever that financials are correct. So in my opinion a fair due diligence is impssible to do WHITHOUT SOMEONE IMPARTIAL REWIEV the numbers. ps I havent said anything abot reviewing protocos from boardmeetings yet :)))) just kidding. There is the red line...lolol |
