The Important Matter of Barry Minkow

First off, I was more than happy to fire Danny last week, but you fuckers expressed your democratic rights, by voting in his favor. As for this week, Danny emailed "The Fly," explaining his ridiculous work ethic, or lack thereof.

In short, he promises some silly video, shortly. "Elections" will commence, immediately following his fucking video.

As for Barry Minkow:

This is just about the funniest shit to hit Wall Street, since he was thrown in jail in 1988 for being a major dick and criminal.

Seriously, Barry is the reverse Billy Mayes. Instead of pitching a company's bullshit products, via infomerical-- he trashes them. And, he buy puts before doing it.

Funny stuff.

Barry went to jail, back in 1988, for running a publicly traded scam, called ZZZZ Best Carpet Cleaning, who had mob ties to boot. Read all the background noise here.

Now, following a 7 year prison term, Barry has dedicated his life to "fighting fraud," and is now a "Senior Pastor" at a Church, naturally.

He is reborn, this time with puts in his brokerage account.

Barry is now trying to destroy a company called Usana (USNA). Usana sells vitamins and a myriad of other hippy bullshit. Basically, Usana is an Avon copycat, where regular idiots attempt to become gagillionaires, via selling crap to their friends and family.

As you know, only lazy fucktards sell Avaon. I suspect lazier fucktards sell Usana.

In short, Barry has gone on a frenzied campaign to destroy shareholder value in USNA. He has a website and regularly uploads reverse sales pitches on Youtube.

In my opinion, Barry's charges are silly and smells like someone trying to make a bundle on his puts.

He claims that most of the retards who sell USNA products lose money and that Usana is using unethical sales techniques, in order to trick people into selling Vita-shit.

Ha!

That's capitalism fucker. If Barry thinks the multi level marketing world of business is fucked up, he should visit any brokerage firm in America. I'd say roughly 85% of all registered reps fail, within the first two years.

During a registered reps training period, he is belittled, abused and forced to live in poverty. Does that mean the regulators should shut down MER?

If some of the lazy couch potato's, who sell USNA, can't make money, I say fuck'em. Not everyone is cut out to be a salesman.

As you know, "it's a tough racket."

So, where is "The Fly" going with all this useless information?

Well, I'm thinking about finding Barry Minkow and throwing some spaghetti at him, or help run USNA back to $60, in order to fuck with Barry's puts.

Frankly, I do not find USNA to be a very appealing company. Without the prospect of destroying Barry, I'd probably throw a bowl of soup at the company's CEO, if given the opportunity.

However, because of this Minkow, every jackass in America has sold short USNA. The fucking short interest is through the roof and the sentiment is gloomy.

Furthermore, the company is in the midst of a stock buyback program. Should these "pyramid players" beat the lowered numbers on the street, Barry and his friends may go back to jail or lose lots of money.

Either scenario is fine with me.

A short squeeze gentleman. A short squeeze.

Did I miss something? Where is Danny's weekend blurb?

He fired off some gibberish late on Friday about moving this weekend and having to post later on Sunday, blah, blah, blah.

Nice no show Danny boy. Not even a, "sorry everyone, my dog ate my blog notes" excuse. Nothing, nada.
 
i cant wait to hear more about minkow. he's a religious guy now right? from fraudster to preacher...
 
C'mon Fly, why all the suspense about this Barry guy?
 
hahaha. Fuckin' awesome

Leroy Patton is the only one of those douchebags who didn't royally fuck up at some point.
 
*Correction* Leroy and his Son are the only two who didn't royally fuck up... though they ARE working for Minkow.

They all live in the same town as THIS homeboy... http://www.nndb.com/people/647/000044515/

I love SD.
 
is he on the board of pre-paid legal?
 
I remember Minkow's first time around with the local TV ads and the talk show appearances. Anyone with 1/2 a brain could see he was all talk, a fucking con man.

Now he is a pastor? Figures.
 
I'm gonna buy some USNA for fun & gambling purposes . The chart don't look bad & could have shorts on the run.
 
In other words, get long Usana
fuckers.
 
Fuck yeah! I love a good war!

Fly,

When throwing soup at CEO's do you prefer a piping hot tomato soup or do you go with a sticky, chunky chowder?
 
LOCM on a tear, fly owned this I think.
 
bot some FMCN this am but looking for opinions on this news?

buy, sell, hold, or short?
 
ACEL breaking out. Gave you guys this on Friday. HYGS looks good here.
 
FMCN..

Buying more. No source for the evidence has been cited. Even if the allegations of related party transactions in 2005 have merit, how does this news materially affect the company's business going forward?

Since the "investor" filing the claim has a short position, he sounds like another Barry Minkow clone.
 
Fly,

Have you bought USNA yet?
 
thx stockhead .... don't know bout fly & usna but i took some @ 44 .. wtf ... is the short pos really 106% !? according to yhoo

Short interest has been high on this shit since way before Barry strolled onto the scene. Check out the company for fucksakes, everyone at the top is a fucking liar. The CEO even dropped his US citizenship to move to St.Kitts. There's nothing remarkable about their products either. Read your shit and you'd know they don't manufacture to Pharm GMPs they're not USP certified, they spend less then 1% on R&D and hold less then 5patents. If you want supplements, I'd say stick to Flinstones Chewable over this shit. Stock never even offered a dividend once and the guys at the top just spend their time cashing out their options.
 
It is really bad to try to destroy a company. What is needed to do is to find the bad sides of the company then people will reject it automatically.
 
A good post on Prepaid legal.I did come across a blog http://israel.buildlastingsuccess.com. It’s all about starting home business based on insurance and legal plans for a 36 year old cash-rich company. It is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and reports directly to the Securities & Exchange Commission. Their 15 consecutive years of RECORD growth... is 100% verifiable!

Thanks,
Wilson-Best home business opportunity
 
Great information. It’s nice to see that people still take the time to write about fields that they are interested in and have knowledge about to help people in learning more about this subject!
