Well said. Proper grammar and spelling seems to be a thing of the past, especially in the younger generation. I'm glad Nkosi has steered away from the norm.

Other than the fact that it is none of OUR business you mean?
I don't think it is right that we pick people apart only because of their age and claims. I'm not even going to think about it anymore because he only said...I have lot of money. Although you are speaking polite, your suspicion shows through and in the end it looks less than polite to dig into it.
It also isn't worth it because it makes us look like haters if we worry about someone elses wealth...alleged or otherwise.
It's like religion and politics...than have no place in any discussion outside religion and politics.
Maybe so Warmonger, maybe so. On the other hand, CEG is a community and individual credibility is a vital part of that.
This young man did offer a whole lot more details about himself than just what was in the title to his post â??? without any particular prompting. Borderline bragging.
Wellâ?¦ tall claims require solid proof - upon demand.
As it happens, Ryan handled himself well here and when compelled did provide sufficient verification of his claims to satisfy me at least. I think he has acquired a level of personal credibility here that he would not have had if I hadnâ??t pushed him a little.
I mean honestly, whom else reading this post was not thinking the exact same thing I was? Drawing him out a little was more a useful exercise for him than for anyone else.
I think he probably learned a little bit about how (and how not) to present his remarkably good fortunes to others. An easy lesson in a safe forum â??? no downside to it really.
Warmonger, itâ??s hard for me to see â??haters worrying about some elseâ??s wealthâ? in anything that was posted here, but thatâ??s just me.
Yeah, you're pretty much right on with all your points.
The last part about "haters" wasn't for you. 
It was for all the other people who smell a little blood and jump in guns blazing without waiting for confirmation or with little sensitivity. I thought that depending on his answers to your questions it might inadvertently bait others into a flame fest. But I understand your position and much of what you said was occuring to me. However I was just going to take it at face value right now because it has been my experience that people with incredible stories will soon "prove out" whether they are liars or are genuine....or a hell of a good liar! 
You seem like you know the kind of people that I'm talking about.

Warmonger, Nkosi, and JED'sCONTOUR: Speaking as someone who has read this forum and seen how it has been going lately, I'm impressed with you three and how you handled this. I was reading and hoping it didn't degenerate into some of the posts of late by a new member that turned into  and name calling. I just think you three should be credited for doing what the forum is for...Communicating. Wish all noob's could see this. Scott

If it's so annoying than don't read it and don't reply to it.
