Permanentjuan: You have to realize that the "Q" is our baby. We have watched it being conceived, watched it being born, watch it daily as it struggles to become stronger. We have been there when it falls and gets bruised, now its coming into its own right and getting stronger each and every day. We the parents are watching over our baby like a hawk, and we do not take lightly to anyone, no matter who, bashing or even coming close to bashing our baby. You bash and the gloves are off. We also are not to open to comments about its Daddy (Frank) or its family in Palm Springs. I hope that this posting brings some laughter to the forum, its starting to get much to uptight for me, but hey this always happens before the PPS rises Lets Go QBID!!!!!

The Baby "Q" also has lots of Aunties and Uncles in this room As I have said before: "Be careful of who's toes you step on today, because they maybe attached to the ass you have to kiss tomorrow"

Closest thing to input would be how I think if the stock does take off and break the $1 mark that it won't take 3 years. If you ask me thats not bashing. Besides, all I'm doing is asking questions. The point is to get information and/or have worries squashed. I feel my questions thusfar have been legitimate. Anyways here are some more. Sorry if Im asking questions already answered in other forums. I've used the search function countless times only to find threads hundreds, if not thousands, of posts long. Since I can't zero in on exact posts it becomes a daunting task.
I just read some new posts saying I need to stop asking questions. I suppose I don't understand the concept of a forum. If the search function on this board was more useful it'd be easier to find the answers I need. Anyways I'll stop posting and asking questions. Matt

What you guys need to also understand is that I am turning into you guys. I'm getting really excited about this stock as well. You always hear "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is." Not saying you guys are pumping the stock but there sure is a lot of QBID lovin going on. Like I said I'm just assessing the risk. Right now I feel I can get in now, it may go lower since it has been on the gradual, very gradual, decline for months, but when it goes national it will rocket in price.
Anyways, I listened to the ****************** interview. Did he say $600 billion or $6 billion? I hear $6 billion. Matt

The 6 Billion is what Frank said the company will be worth in 5 year. I thought it was 5 Billion, Oh well have to listen again. The $600 Billion is the Disposible income of the Gay and lesbian community. The $600 billion is what the Advertisers look at to know how much they should spend to get that $600 billion.

i just listened to it again and he did say 6 not 600. i was under the impression the statistic is 600 billion not 6 billion. i hope frank just mispoke.

So then advertisers should realize that there is a lot of money to be made through QBID. So QBID has revenue coming from advertisers and from subscribers. Is there any other form of revenue they are or could be taking in revenue from? Matt

$600 Billioon in Disposible income and we hope to get 55% of the market. And using One percent advertising fees to get that market is 3.3 Billion dollar annual revenue. Sounds Good to me.

The $600 Billion was from the Gay/lesbian website. Don't remember the web address on top of my head but that was found in earlier DD.

Ric,I think Q Television Network will be the anchor. This is USA stats. I think spinoffs will occur. Only speculation and forward thinking on my part but seems reasonable. Firestone is a powerhouse. PS,,I am looking forward to the ride.

QBID worth 5-6 Billion Market Cap. in 5 Years
Disposible Income of the Gay/Lesbian community $600 Billion. Used to figure Advertising.
This is two different things. Not one in the same.

i don't know how this got so confusing but i was talking about the interview with frank olsen on the wall street report er frank clearly says very clearly the gay and lesbian community has a $6 billion disposable income. i am guessing he made a mistake when he said that. at least i hope he did. since i can't post the exact link on here without it being filled with ****** just go to www. wall street reporter .com

i know that's what i've been hearing everywhere but frank says 6billion like i said before i really hope he just mispoke. did you listen to the interview?

i know that's what i've been hearing everywhere but frank says 6billion like i said before i really hope he just mispoke. did you listen to the interview? I posted the interview. Did you hear the CC?
quote:Originally posted by firefly: Man,, get over it. SO WHAT IF FRANK MISPOKE.
i'm sorry i just wanted to make sure it was just a mistake. so people who hear the interview don't think what he said in the interview is correct. because if the investors started thinking the gay and lesbian community only had 6 billion of disposable income vs. 600 billion that wouldn't be good. with 600 billion that's an avg of just over $20k of disposable per person and 6 billion is JUST $200. there is a HUGE difference in numbers. i wouldn't want anyone to get the wrong idea.
quote:Originally posted by firefly: What is your point aido?
i thought it was obvious. i'm just looking out for my investment. i don't want anyone who hears the interview to think the $6 billion is the right number. i know if i thought it was, i would rethink my investment. since it is $600 billion i feel very secure with my investment.

6 billion vs $600 Billion, in any case the Q promo states $500 Billion. Now I am sure that there are those of you who will try to compare apples with oranges, have at it.I bet we will have the next 10-20 post on this forum to dispute or argue which # is the right one.
Q is on the roll with or without you, and we have at least $500 billion to tap into.
GO QBID!!!!! Bring On The Green !!!!

Here is last years total $485 Billion. Still looking up this years totals. But I think t at least puts the 6 Billon to rest. When I find the Article which shows the $600 Billin I ill pos it. It wasposted before though. http://www.freep.com/money/business/gays10_20031010.htm
That disposable income appears to be considerable.
"The projected spending power of the gay and lesbian segment of the population, about 15 million people, for 2003 is $485 billion," said Stephanie Blackwood, a New York marketing executive. "That's compared to the Hispanic segment, which is $653 billion, but gays and lesbians are nearly a third the size of the Hispanic segment."

according to a study done in 1998 The Annual Value of the Gay and Lesbian Market is $514 Billion Average Household Income Gay Households $52,624 (41% above national average)
Lesbian households $42,755 (26% above national average)
so i think it would be safe to say it's substantially higher today. gives me a warm feeling inside.
