Title: Do actions speak louder than words?
Post by: RchGrav on June 22, 2011, 06:59:24 AM

I think that the saying "Actions speak louder than words" is relevant in our situation.  

If my actions are wrong, and I can justify them with words... does that make my actions right?  What about vice-versa?

Words represent things that are used to sway opinions... twist facts... quite often used as political tool, or weapons and in the media... It just seems to me that words... as powerful as they are.. just sometimes can't be trusted.

Actions represent what really happens, and what is going to happen... right now, to me, in this very moment, actions are truth.

I will continue to trade on Mt.Gox.. however. I do not plan to hold a larger amount of money on their system than I can either "afford to lose" or "withdraw all at once".

I think... for your hard work.. and assuming very little collateral damage, you deserve AT LEAST that Mt.Gox.

What do you think?  Am I Crazy?  ... don't answer that.. lol

I have read this somewhere, and I will repeat it. This will all be forgotten in 2 weeks once MTGOX is back up and running.
