OMG i don't have words to say than, how in the world can you trust someone 340k$ ? I know i'm not helping to lower your pain, but look it that way:you learned something in investment, which you could lear much easier.
Belive me you could invest those 340k$ in your own page and you would be making at least 20% per month. You can consider this as a tip for the future.
I'm really sorry, but i'm realist.
Everyone with money is not an investor nor an entrepreneur.. Your post was not very smart/nor helpful in my opinion.
Its like telling someone who drinks to stop drinking and start a vodka company..
Well, that comparisson is not really accurate. If he had 340k$ in that site than he is investor, we can't disprove that. By having such a big investment in site which is owned by ''we-don't-know-who", he made it really risky.
And i have already write that i didn't intend to be helpful in a way : oh i'm sorry, do you feel better now? not really, right?
I might sound like advertising, but with such an ammount (or even only 10% of it) he could make his own site, and take full controll of his investment, which means he knows all the risks and he can deal with them. Now someone took his 340k$ and he is blaming them, of course, try giving 340k$ to random guy on street and tell him that you will be back on the same spot in 1 year time waiting for money. What do you expect, to be honest?
he didnt invest in the site. He is a gambler. For sure he was willing to loose his gambling proceeds. However, this was not the case, he actually won, and won big. This thread is about him actually getting robbed by the site.
In your reasoning, there would be no gamblers in the world, and everyone willing to risk a penny would only do so by investing in a casino. In your world, there would naturally be no proceeds or dividends from a casino, making the investment worthless..
So you recommendation to him to become an investor instead of actually being a gambler, doesnt make much sense at all.
Yes an honest recommendation, but not a very smart one.
