I am sure the company is named after you. Will you be going to your hunting area in a chauffered limo?

Yelp, I guess I have to explain.  On the Nasdaq exchange is an initial public offering (IPO) of 100 million dollars.
The company is called YELP. A janitor who took stock in loo of some pay will be worth over a million dollars.
The founders of YELP stand to make many tens of millions of dollars.

So with a handle of Yelp, I figured you stand to make some $$.

FYI. My wife manages money in trusts. If you have a spare million or so that you want to leave the kids in a trust keep her in mind. Also, we have the business news cable channel on 8 hours a day 5 days a week. The market opens at 6:30am
when I am taking a break from work and catching the headlines.

I don't think this board is the appropriate place for you to be pumping and tauting your stock portfolio.

This is unethical behavior on your part, and tantamount to spam

It is a common occurrence for stock tauts to spam web sites in order to increase stock prices and public awareness.  It is often part and parcel of "pump and dump" schemes.

I wouldn't imagine that you know of any of this though.

While I agree....I disagree that this is what's going on, not like it was his first post.

h20hunter.....Let me have some popcorn and I got another beer for ya!!! :IBCOOL:
Lord , we've been here on days before
and often times you've let me score
Now do you think that on this day
you could send a gobbler down my way?
And , if not , just let me say--
you've given me another day
to hunt the bird I love the best.
I don't mind sharing with the rest

Knocker, you are starting to irritate.  Your snide remark to Gundy, that he would not understand was uncalled for.  You made a like remark last week on another thread.  We have had your kind before, they changed or left.  You just the same as called Gundy, stupid, or dumb.  Name calling is not allowed.
Perhaps you should pray to God, and ask for His help. Don't try to make Him feel inferior.  He has no sense of humor.

So it seems that tongue in cheek is not understood here.
By coincidence, yelp's handle and the name of the stock are the same.
If there was a stock named jerbear, twistiron, bowhunter45 or any other handle. You may see the same post.
Although, this being the turkey forum, the stock name should coincide with a turkey handle, e.g. yelp.
jerbear in the bear hunting forum. bowhunter45 in the archery forum. I am not sure where twistiron would be.

Unfortunately, there are people who have led such a hard life that their family can point to fingers on one hand the number of times they have laughed.
February and March are sit and wait months before turkey season starts. A little humor makes the time pass more quickly.
