    Bring the Ariel Atom - that should surely wake all of the neighbors. FLD was asking me about doing a segment on that car as well...

    Should be interesting!

    I'm in Gregg!

    Knew this smelled funny, oh well there goes my ride in a 599! Lucky for him he was banned in the bi-annual NYS NY F-Chat slugfest not long before the supposed purchase of said 599. We all know how that would have played out.

    Hello everyone-

    I had to come back and respond to what, I feel, is just a disgrace. Why would an unlocked forum be reopened for the sole purpose of embarrasing me???? Emil, what did I do to you (outside a little good sport ribbing) for you to continue my pain??? Or any of you who have jumped on the bandwagon. From my perspective, I have always been a gentleman to everyone....always gracious....always appreciative.....always thankful. I can not remember one time where I was adversarial with someone. But the venom I see here.....the joy at my difficulties....I just don't get???

    The story????? I gave away too much. i gave to everyone who couldn't eat....who had no money for rent.....no money for Christmas.....where the not for profits failed....where social services didn't work....i gave everything I had to those who had nothing.....b/c i was blessed. Not b/c i had money...but b/c i had a beautiful wife and 2 beautiful babies. I wanted everyone to have that joy. And i just did it too much and could not say no.

    I failed at my fiduciary responsibilities towards people who had trusted me with investments. Not b/c i scammed them....or some other alleged trickery, but b/c I literally just ran out of money.....and I just was irresponsible in my obligations. Not criminal...just stupid (but hey, that's what the lawyers arer for). If you had a question, a concern....wanted something clarified....why not just give me a buzz...or an email. I would have replied. To reoped a locked forum and laugh at my pain is disgusting.

    I have met many of you and have always considered many of you wonderful people. Many of you do not know me....or what i have done, or given. So you really can't judge me. B/c of my foolishness I have lost my name, my business....but most importantly......I have lost my wife and childen. If you feel it necessary to continue with this thread then hey, so be it. But Emil, cast not the first stone. This was unecessary and vicious. And it only adds to my difficulties and shame.

    To the rest of you.....I will resolve my problems......restitute my clients...and will do everything necessary to fix what i have caused. I thank you all for your friendship and fun for the past few years and wish you you and your families all the best for the future.

    Remember when i said earlier (go back in the thread) to remember to kiss your kids. Go do that now. And be thankful for it. Because i can no longer do that.

    Gregg

    I've always seen Gregg as a pretty down to earth guy and I've enjoyed talking with him on the various runs we've been on together. Regardless of your personal feelings towards him, kicking a guy when he's down is a pretty damn cowardly thing to do.

    If you have your problems with the guy, fine, but one would think most would grow out of laughing and pointing at someone's misfortune.

    There should be no joy or schadenfreude [pleasure taken from someone else's misfortune] no matter the cause and effect [unless it's Leona Helmsley, then all bets are off].

    Very, very dismayed to read of your plight, Gregg, particularly in light of your bond with your children, whom are quite apparently the true joy in your life, and wish you the best towards keeping that heartfelt sentiment above all else.

    I am a firm believer in fate - that things happen for a reason. No matter the cause or outcome, I hope above all else that any errors in judgment help turn life's lemons into lemonade.

    The man has enough on his worried mind and how to deal with peers in the forthcoming months without dealing with the court of public opinion on F-Chat.

    If someone wishes to gossip about this matter, please do so via telephone or in person, as that is private, as opposed to the medium of the internet.

    To all those ends, Gregg, it is most advisable in every sense of the word to refrain from posting about these matters currently under review and yet to be settled of, by and for local jurisprudence, as it cannot serve you well to disclose information which may be used against you in a court of law.

    This thread had not been closed before today, but, it is closed as of now.
