Frankly, if I can make 25% with real estate then 7.2 from an electronic investment is somewhat shabby, don't you think?
And again, I do not nor did I ever question the integrity or honesty of TGC operators. By 'following their example' I was referring to 'starting an unregistered business that claims some income, code an exchange with no listing rules, entice a few reputable people to invest in the business and then running a ponzi scheme until a large enough amount is reached before vanishing'. Scammers might be doing it as we speak (write?) and refer to TGC as the shining example...
