Early,

There are a couple of company's on the ASX that make my blood boil, this is one of them. If I had stock in this company, the AGM would still be going.

Now I don't know whether you attend many AGM's but let me give you some suggestions when you attend another.

1. If you don't understand the financials, go to your accountant and spend $60 for 30 minutes of their time (it's claimable on your tax). Ask them to highlight areas they think are an issue and write out some questions you should ask the directors.

2. Go to other AGM's and watch the professional retail investors in action, they will ask questions that you can use at other meetings. (The insto's get their own briefings).

4. Go very hard on companies that are losing you money and be thorough with your questions and research, if they don't answer them correctly, that's when you know to pull the pin on your investment.

3. Final point. Put your hand up mate, sometimes your family's future is on the line and they depend on you making the right decision. So many retailers stay quiet and wait for others and no one ever comes forward and the meeting then closes. You then have to wait another year.

Now just with the lawyers at this meeting, I'm not sure why they would have been there as you only need a representative from the auditors and let me tell you from experience, they don't listen to the meeting.
