My apologies, Bob.  I didn't mean to sink to that level.  I won't happen =
again.  I respect your right to have any opinion you wish.  Please =
respect mine.  My apologies to the group, as well.

  Ben,

  Then why call me a BRAGGART? (name calling) I was simply making a =
point and trying to inspire others to greatness.

  You have done nothing but criticize my opinion and demean my message =
in sarcastic tones and name calling of your own.

  I've stated legal premise and you say I persecuted you. I've =
challenged people to improve their lot in life and you mock me. You take =
general comments made to a group, and take it personally.=20

  It appears (note: speculation, not accusation ) that the only opinion =
you can 'tolerate' is your own.=20

  Bob

    Richard -- There is no sense at this point to argue or try to =
reason.  Everyone has his or her opinion, and that's the way it's going =
to be.  We have to accept that, and move on with our efforts.  I'm glad =
that there so many that are supporting an effort, while pursuing other =
endeavors, to see if we have any grounds for any legal action.  I don't =
consider this a waste of time, and even if it was, my time is my time =
and no one has the right to criticize it, and we should not citicize =
others for their opinions, as well. Calling anyone a "loser" for =
pursuing a belief that is just and legal is just plain wrong.  Shame on =
you.=20

    I believe it would be interesting, however, if there can be an =
opinion rendered if renewals for vested agents are in jeopardy as a =
result of a class action suit.  If there is a class action suit, doesn't =
that mean it's for the benefit of everyone, anyway??  Is everyone =
involved at that point anyway??  I don't know.  If we do get a =
well-respected large law firm to accept this on a contingency basis, =
doesn't that add a lot of credibility to our efforts??  We have seen a =
lot of comments from the alum that state why we can't proceed with legal =
action. I ask the question, what is wrong with finding out, laying out =
our options, and proceeding as we wish?

    Since I don't have to brag about what I make and what I do because =
(or who I hit the links with) I have high self-esteem for myself and am =
very good at what I do, I haven't stooped to this level, but to present =
the other side of the coin, here is my example.  Since leaving LTPC, I =
have made over $16,000 all the while pursuing this endeavor.  I channel =
my passion for long term care on the phone and in the home and leave my =
personal life, problems and negative baggage elsewhere.  I don't believe =
anyone could be successful if they could not do that.  My passion for =
fighting for what I believe is right and just is just as strong, and I =
am able to channel that when I need to and where I need to.

    So, everyone, please stop the name calling.  If you have a legal =
background, please, by all means, offer your opinion.  State case law =
and not assumptions.  Your choice -- join in or not -- but please allow =
those of us who choose to determine our legal options peace, and we will =
let those of you who choose not to join in the same peace.  Thank you.=20

      Interesting comments, but how would you classify some agent with =
$340,000 of business on the books that was a good loyal employee that =
might not get vested because of so little staff handling policies in =
home office and might lose thousands over the next ten years.  Are they =
a 5 or a 6?
