Where is Mike Maloney?

Because the administrator of this website is almost completely uninvolved in stopping people from slandering others etc., most of the posts here are pretty useless. It's a shame, as there could be a lot of benefit...
Hey we like Mike, the vast majority of us.
I've seen no defamation, nothing even close
 
Most of the posts here are meaningless junk with people mocking each other. It's as if there's no moderator on this site. You have to sift through piles of this junk to get at any meaningful posts. Am I the only person who feels this way?

The only change Ive personally noticed is how rude a lot of the new members seem to be.

To those questioning Mike's integrity as he also sells precious metals, those selling bullion make their money on the margin spread between buying and selling, so whatever it sells for to them is fairly irrelevant as they make their small profit from each transaction regardless.

to add to that, to make it cut and dry: he does not sell his own silver. he buys from a wholesale dealer when you make a purchase from him.

I'm sure there is little mark-up. The real money's in books, know what I'm sayin?
I'm a cheapskate though, I try to watch his free videos for his advice.

If you're successful, people will say you have a vested interest and you're not to be trusted.

If you're a bum, people say "why listen to him? He's a loser!"

Can't win :)

He HAS a vested interest, successful or not. He sells the books, and he sells the stuff. That's the definition of vested interest.

If he was an academic with an independent view that is not associated to a business, then he can be classified as no vested interest.

This is not picking on him because he's rich, this is just what the definition is.

Of course he has a vested interest, but note that I said "...and you're not to be trusted".
There's a difference between having a vested interest and being trusted, and having one and not.

Most people associate having a vested interest - almost automatically - with distrust.

Yes, and it's a good automatic mechanism to have. Scepticism is a good guard against loss.

There are some extremely good salesman out there - protect your own interest and aggregate opinions, don't just listen to one.

Agreed.
But I happen to think Mr Maloney is genuine. Here is where I draw the line:
