i'm sure they have a hindsight result of 80% with their sim charts.
''trading since the 70's'' and hes running a room LOL
they apparently make enough money to pay whatever the ET sponsorship cost is
Yeah you get enough people per month to sign up @ $250/month a pop, and as long as you keep the new meat coming in, it doesn't really matter what the turnover is.
If they can even get 10% of the current ET population to try for at least 1 month, that's about 9000 x $250.....
Lots of money....and I imagine it's unlikely that 10% of the population would sign up for that crap...but even at 1 percent of ET, appx 900 people paying for 1 month of membership would be about $225,000.
Then you gotta figure they start making these bleeding heart posts about how you must keep at it for a long time in the chat room or you will fail, so that way they can eek out a little more subscription errr...tuition money from these poor hopeful souls.
That's not to mention any other forums they shill on. Lots of dirty money to be made.
Nice racket. Who the hell needs to trade? They don't give a damn about trading. They'd be offering Beanie Baby chat rooms to housewives if this were the 90s again.
Too bad money can't buy character or honor. All the fancy set-up names and software in the world can't make someone a decent and honorable human being. By hey, some people are able to live without those niceties (honor, character, etc).
