So you told all your friends, "GO PUT YOUR MONEY ON THIS SITE" because the risk/reward was there for you? Because even though you didn't know a whole lot about the site, you "didn't think they were likely to go under"?
I understand where you're coming from, and you got unlucky, but by promoting a product you didn't know much about, you have cost your friends and many people you don't know a lot of money.
I also think all FTP endorsers screwed up as well. They took the fame and money to endorse something they apparently didn't know enough about.
To be clear, I don't wish bad things on you or other endorsers. I am not gleeful that things didn't work out. But it is bizarre to say that you guys shouldn't bear responsibility for screwing over many people; people should stick to promising the quality of a product where they are actually in a position to promise it's quality. I feel the need to make this point because people think all the FTP endorsers got unlucky... and this is baffling to me, because these are the same people that may have lost money on FTP directly because of these FTP endorsers' actions. Phil Ivey is just as accountable as the rest. At least with him he is trying to take steps to amend his mistake.
Not really sure why I am alone in this point of view
