Do you even listen to yourself?

How do you know for 100% fact where that is? What if all this is true, and it turns out getting your "best return" in real time destroys any future returns... then was it the best?

You can't quantify this argument in real time vs. the future, and if someone is taking advantage of the system, further participation with that entity will almost assuredly destroy any chance of anyone making the most out of it.

It is better to participate with an entity we can see is not causing a problem than to facilitate the troublesome entity we do see right now.
