Well said Leo. Thank you for putting it in perspective. Of course I will admit that my imperfections may at times cause me to be a bit more optimistic than I should be. My intent is not to try to over promote. But when I get really excited about something and feel the fundamentals justify my excitement, I don' believe I am doing the right thing by withholding my views.

I have also suffered losses personally on those two stocks. Lion One appears to be on the right track. Regarding Novo, who knows? work at Egina area might bring some value? Whether we recover all we lost after so much dilution may be unlikely. I have personally shared your pain. high risk/high reward is the nature of early stage exploration stories.

Jay, can you explain to me why none of the show hosts, including you, ever ask a guy like Bob or a guy like Quentin what went wrong with Novo and why they hyped it the way they did. As I look at it, It has Bre-X written all over it but no one seems to look under the hood. In most industries, there are consequences.

Is HydroGraph as good as your other "Moonshot" recommendations: Itronics, Greater Lenora Resources, International Prec Metals, Delgratia, etc?

All now zero or close to it.

Well, you have actually missed a couple more recent horrible picks of mine. Shame on you! But you have also failed to mention far more frequent 1,000+ % gainers over the past 43 years. Perhaps you have not understood that high risk/high return start up stories bring with them a high percentage of losers. But it also seem certain that you have no understanding that while you can lose 100% of your investment, that limits the loss. Perhaps you have forgotten that the upside is infinite? You may do well to consider HydroGraph as one of those possibilities. Time will tell. But if I believe in a story, what am I to do? Should I not share it with my subscribers simply because I may run into a few unhappy disgruntled investors along the way who are emotionally or financially unable to understand risk/reward parameters or afford to take losses when they take place?

You are telling your story and a few of us are telling ours. That’s all

Nearly every recommendation from Bob concerning junior miners has been a dramatic flop. They are the only losers in my portfolio . I do like to listen to Bob and thinks he has a lot worth listening to. Novo Resources was the worst recommendation followed by Lion One . Still waiting on them while being down 95% and 79% respectively

Jay,

I really like the Hydrograph clean power story and their CEO appears to be very competent. What, if any concerns do you have moving forward with this company?

Thanks,

Ryan Tourney

Jay, Leo seems to think that we should only share our success stories on this forum and not warn others of the pitfalls of companies that are hyped on podcasts and push emails. He also seems to think that your advice or recommendations are "free." I'm pretty sure that many if not most of the companies that you and Bob Moriarty talk about in glowing terms are paid sponsors so lets define the term free for Leo.

A person who I respect a lot often said “you have got to know the game you are in” and the game of Junior Resource stock picking is a very high risk, high reward game - and if you are not willing to accept the rules of the game, you should not be in the game at all! Pissing and moaning about your losses and blaming Jay or Bob is juvenile- if the kitchen is too hot, you shouldn’t have been in the kitchen in the first place!! And besides, this article on Hydrograph is free - not like other unscrupulous newsletter writers who tease you with all sorts of hype then hold out their hands for your two thousand dollars for their subscription. Just be an adult and accept the advice for what it’s worth and then go out and DYODD! And knowing Jay like I do, I feel quite certain he will not ask you to share your profits with him.
