Re: Octaviar MFS Premium Income Fund PIF
Quote mellifuous'There has been no posting that has been made that would cause the thread to be closed, and in any event you could just start up in yahoo or elsewhere. It's also worth nothing that the moderators of this forum would delete any postings they don't like - that is their pejorative.'
We don't want to start up elsewhere, we are quite happy here. Is it because you are not a unit holder and have nothing to lose that you don't care if we lose this thread? That is a very selfish attitude from someone who says they are only trying to help. You have two threads you started yourself, are they so boring that you have to constantly try and get a rise out of PIF unit holders?
Unitholders know our current situation is not ideal or what we expected but that is not what we voted for. We also have had the guts to admit that we have made an unintentional mistake and do not need to be told time and time again what could have or should have been done at a time when unsophisticated investors supported what they considered to be the best option available to them at the time. That option did not eventuate but it IS NOT OUR FAULT!! We are exploring all possible avenues to better our situation. We are now more aware of our rights through much research and professional advice. You are only aggravating a bad situation and causing unnecessary angst. Please leave us alone and put your efforts into your own fellow FMF unitholders, it may be more appreciated. Thanks, Seamisty
Well, with respect, if the thread becomes more important than one's ability to freely express oneself, then the sitution has really become 'back to front'.
I'm cautiously aware of the law - and I'm careful to speak to the truth - and the facts, especially taken from W.C.'s own website are the basis of that truth.
Hey, it's not about fault - that's how you're perceiving it, but the sad reality is that a lot of people still do not understand what happened.
I understand that you're one of the larger unitholders in your fund and believe it or not, having the fund listed might prove to be more costly to you than other members of the fund, especially if the issue of payments from the fund become a tax problem.
Danielle's letter to W.C. about the issue of tax remains unanswered some two months later.
Angst? angst rising from truth? Well, why shouldn't people feel peeved about finding out they've been duped? (no pun intended Duped).
It must be a pleasant world to live in where one is ignorant of the facts. Members' ignorance is a manager's best advantage.
One day you'll come to understand that it is only when EVERYONE knows and understands the facts will EVERYONE be able to make an informed decision.
Oh. and on the threads, yes they are boring -- so, we have our own coffee club which is purring along quite comfortably.
'get a rise'? --- I'll let this one pass.
I think you just want a placid news gathering forum while others 'work behind the scenes', but if nothing comes from all that work, what will you tell your fellow investors when they get nothing (or next to nothing)?
Will that be a "sorry"?
When you stiffle debate, then you will find yourself with some responsibility for the outcome. Just think how wrong you were about Michael West, and how you pressed against his counsel, what responsibility do you take for that error? nothing?
You will find comfort in the fact that this will be my last posting here - I've added everything I wanted to in order to be helpful.
I wish you all good luck.
