I'm not in business with them, just stating the obvious.
Agreed. Still a lot more questions left unanswered. The 9 figure investment is the strangest one recently. Seems it's over 6 months now and that money's burning a hole in someone's bank of FT was BSing us. Go figure.

The offices they list and the 700 staff they state. Has anyone ever knocked on their doors and looked to see what's there? Montreal, Hamburg, Luxemburg, London, Los Angeles, Nicosia.

No this bunch wouldn't do that, they prefer poking fun at me for pointing out FT's failings.
