RealTraders,
First, let me apologize for those who are offended by my answering
questions I was asked on this medium. This will be my last post in regards
to our company or its services.
Second, principal and principle look real close (to me) when typing at 1:30
in the morning. Please let me clarify. I own the company.
Third, any future correspondence will be responded to only via email
directly to the website -- as many of you have done.
I enjoy your forum. If I have violated the rules by responding to a
question here -- then remove me from your list.
Respectfully,
George T Selin
Option Strategies Inc
