$1 Billion laughs.

Hey Anonymous, I wouldn't give him credit or the smarts to pull off a ponzi scheme. He lives in a bubble that is going to pop soon.

Smart investors do their research and I'm very glad to know that this the one of the best blogs sites to find out information on Mr. Wael Al-mazeedi.

This site is the quintesstial fact that he (Wael) is not all there.

Think "Nice landing...wrong airport!".

He does fly alot. I guess he cannot figure out what the rest of the world know of him. I am glad I did not invest with him.
