This is like the classic "Right. Give me the money and wait right here, I'll go get your shit form my guy & be right back."
Only you've been waiting since 2013

Well, the thing is that we gave him our money years ago already. We lost it already. Everthing that now comes back is a plus that lowers our loss.
The thing is a bit different than running a stranger away because we can push him forward... The circumstances are that way. So if things don't get into smooth roads soon, now that everything is readymade and he only needs to send the divs each month, we can push.
To be honest, I gave up long ago to believe any of his promise. I can't get my hopes up anymore now. Though I still work on things because I know that we make babysteps at least. We won't sit around silent when things went worse.
