"I publish *my* opinions that I stand by 100%, and no one has ever been able to buy my opinions"

Great. So he's *merely* wrong, and being quoted all over the place.

I guess not being dishonest is something commendable. Now if he could only form
opinions that have some connection to reality...

"He's just expressing an independent opinion."

It would be easier to believe, if not for his convoluted
"logic" that always manages to find Oracle in the right --
and all its losses as "unimportant" while all its minor
"wins" are the "crux of the trial."

FM " no one has ever been able to buy my opinions"

As I read this quote ...

"I publish *my* opinions that I stand by 100%,
and no one has ever been able to buy my opinions in any way."

a few different thoughts come to mind.
Perhaps his opinions are 'priceless' ...
or maybe his opinions are 'worthless'.

One thing I know for sure.

I've never been able to 'buy' anything that FM has
opined about. Except perhaps the likelihood of an appeal.

I guess FM is right. (Astonishing ... I know)

No one in their right mind, has ever been able
to 'buy' his opinions in any way.

They are his opinions, and he's not selling them.

But please understand that his opinions are symbolic references to dynamic
situations that can be reinitialized depending on cashflow... and all
patentable, of course ;)

Renting them, on the other hand, well...

As Grouch Marx put it, "These are my principles. If you don't like them,
well, I have others."
