Ann: Austin completes Priority Offer, page-12

You just highlighted my point that not every company happens to sit on a land of gold. The majority of companies don't make it overnight, it takes time and money to get there. I take it you held this in the past and are disgruntled with it all (and that is why you are so keen to discuss it)? Only mentioned BHP because you don't seem to believe in companies raising money, so maybe you should go into bluechips...
