Re: UKNM: DotCom Dead Pool

[Robin Edwards]

I think it is a fantastic idea and would gladly invest money in it with the

proviso that it floats in less than 3 months so we can all get rich and

abandon ship.


Was reading an article from the New York Times today (thanks Mom) where a

bunch of dot-coms were profiled and ranked according to the number of staff

they have recently laid off (as a percentage of total staff employed.)


The article wasn't too doom and gloom, but what amazed me most was that most

of the ex-staff interviewed seemed to say the same thing:


"I'm pissed off because I left a good job for this. They attracted me with a

significant salary raise and stock options, promising me riches when they

floated. The options are now worthless and I am out of a job."


So, they jumped ship because they were offered more money, and the potential

of being able to retire within a few months. And the investors got twitchy

and pulled out, you say? Hmm. My heart is indeed bleeding.
