It takes an honest person to admit

It takes an honest person to admit they made a mistake and then do everything they can about it. Nobody has perfect judgment.
To ES, no personal unkindness meant here, but I can almost bet if you are over 25, you have made some serious mistakes in judgment about people and money.
The most common one these days is marriage partner, and the profound affect of this mistake on innocent children who suddenly find themselves living separated from one parent or another or from their partners spouse whom they have come to love.
Now I suppose you also believe that all of us who had money at FXLQ and especially those who were running managed accounts there are all at fault and should never take on other clients again. After all, in their due dilligence, there was nothing on the SURFACE that anything was wrong at FXLQ. No NFA complaints, etc. There was no apparent reason to not to trust them after due diligence.
Eventually, you have to trust somebody or you will never trade. FXLQ shows for certain that you can't trust the NFA, so who do you suggest we trust ES?
Personally, I'd still open an account with Alecco for now he's even wiser than he was, and his discernment has been fine tuned. Those who have made mistakes and learned from them are the one's that can most likely be trusted.
It is very easy to point at others in righteous indignation, much more difficult to examine ourselves and admit we're wrong. And it's even more difficult than that to take the responsibility for making it right.
Thanks Maxpunt.
As of now, it looks like I'm leaving around the end of the week and may be gone for an extended period of time. I may or may not have internet access, so once I leave I will try to monitor this thread periodically. Alecco, I have tried repeatedly to contact you. I think you are not getting your messages from non-account holders.
Best to all of you.

To me love is the willingness from the heart to serve others with respect, kindness and practicality in whatever way God gives us. As we serve others in this fashion we serve and reflect Him who made us all.
