Most of us who try to help get kicked at some point but we dont threaten physical violence. We BRs are thick skinned. We've had to be to survive this. What is most important is helping those who are absolutely worried sick about the future. If you have constructive comments then voice them. If not.... hold your peace0 -

Hi Dez,
You too are a voice of moderation and I admire you for that.:T :T
I just have to correct your quote though:
"Fool me once
Shame on you
Fool me twice
Shame on me."

Rich,
Hey Dez, they don't come any more northern than me, well north east to be exact.
We're directly descended from the Vikings that plundered and pillaged our fair coastline.:D

Southernbouy, you were posting misleading information, you were leading people to believe that this was a 'normal' bank account, when infact it was a managed account aimed at people who cannot manage their money, a far cry from your misleading title.
Your reaction to this being pointed out was, quite frankly, deplorable. The offensive posts that followed were totally unnecessary, and it's quite understandable that members fought back against your tirade of abuse.Accept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear0 -
Thanks for reminding us of the big picture Bat.
Oh, as for the fool me quote I prefere GW Bush's
