Hopeless Romantics! LMAO!!! HA-HA!! Just playing around...love that quote though!!

That is correct Ricewind, but in the U.S. no one knows that and they say WHO? So you have to start with "Russian" as that is all they know.. LOL

It is actually a Biography of Peter Rindeikis and His Son Joseph, now 92. But so it is not so boring "Biography" we are trying to tell it as a story of how Cossacks were used and may I say abused by the Czar's and others and their place in a history that Americans know little about. And then how the Rindeikis name migrated to the U.S. and their futures here.

Peter Rindeikis was a guard to the Czar at one point, as were many Cossacks.. I have been playing with it a bit to make it a Novel, by telling the history of Russia as it might have been seen through the Cossacks eyes. As you may well know at the same time the Cossacks were guards to the Czar the Russian army attacked and destroyed Cossack Villages.

I have some detailed records from the various Cossack families.

You'll have to re-write that trilogy from the scratch. Someone played a joke on you. You see ... I've never heard of Russian Cossacks. There were Zaporozhian Cossacks, Don Cossacks, Ural Cossacks, Siberian Cossacks, Caucasus Cossacks ... etc...
But don't despair ... keep digging.

Congrats on 10,075 rep pwr
I appreciate all that you put into helping others.
Thanks.

Thanks so much Trants.
I think you can find it as NTB on the Bermuda Stock Exchange WWW.BSX.COM
I am checking to see how some one who is not in Bermuda can buy it if they wish, I think they would have to use a broker here in Bermuda to purchase but I am not sure. If I can sort that out do you think it is worth posting on MSB? Thanks again for your input - I appreciate it.
All the best Nbp

Sorry Trants - I could not send the articles as they were too long but here are some sites for Bank of NT Butterfield Bermuda that might be helpful if you do get the chance sometime soon.

Good Morning Trants,
I was wondering if you might have a moment to take a look at Bank of N.T. Butterfield in Bermuda. Their stock has recently plummeted. I have sent separately ( coz too big to fit in this message) two articles about what has been happening recently and was hoping that you might have a look at it and see what you think - could it one of your potential gems so to speak. It is listed on the BSX so anyone can purchase shares is they wish to.
Anyway, I do hope you might get a chance to have a look and share some of your wisdom - as I would be very interested to know what your take on it might be.
Thanks Trants & have a good week.

Ride Joseph Ride!

My KFN freebees are strictly your doing! I damn near went all in on KFN at .95 (i only started investing with $12K about 15 months ago) and took your free shares advice at around 1.5 to get my money back (plus some gains) and left some shares on the table to ride it out. So my story will always have this 'Trants' guy in the mix lol with some of the best advise I could ever ask for. If they ever get back to that 50 cent dividend, WOW! I'll be making $4K a year by just letting my free shares sit there. I was in KFN before MSB was started, but I didn't have full confidence in my play (especially being how new I was to the market) till you all helped me make sense of it. So thank you Trants for helping to educate me!!

Happy belated/early birthday, Trants. Sorry I forgot. Somebody was telling me that time takes a tole on your memory, ahh....who was that? Aw f-it, I'm drawing a blank.
