I've met some very well educated people who couldn't write at all. The way a person writes is too often misapplied to their ability to perform in other areas - especially on forums. That guy could well make more in a year than any of us make in a lifetime - but the way he writes would not be an indicator of that. Likewise, neither would his complaints here.

Usually, the people we trust the most are those the least deserving of that trust. For example, a writer like me can polish himself up, look good, research what to say and when to say it, bring my exceptionally well educated trophy wife along, and then go scam people into putting money in me - because I make it look good.

Meanwhile, the guy who really should be managing that sort of thing is a little overweight, rarely gets laid, and likely doesn't speak well in person. However, he's brilliant where it counts - most people just don't see that.

This is because the guy with nothing to lose can totally win your heart - while the guy who knows what he has to offer usually sucks at selling himself - because he knows in comparison to everything else right where he sits, and isn't going to lie to you about it.

Anyway Not my fight. When either of you want to put your VC in a writer, look me up. I've also got a few projects in the Caucasus Mountains - but who wants to invest there, right?
