you keep restating the seemingly-identical position

Yes, because it was literally the only thing I was trying to bring up, as I have stated repeatedly.

I'm not the one confused here. I've been straightforward about the incredibly minor point I was making. People should know who his wife works for, as it may influence their feelings on him.

Simple as. No more, no less.

Could it matter? Maybe. Maybe not.

Almost everyone responding is jumping to all sorts of conclusions about what I really meant by bringing it up. I just thought people should know the fact, as I had never seen it ever brought up until recently. For myself, it casts some of Cory's previous rants in a different light, but I'm not actively trying to sway things in any direction here.

I am getting real tired of people responding with basic ass "gotchas" pointed at shit I didn't say or bring up though, and declaring themselves some sort of winner in an argument I was never having.

Edit: Me responding so much is that I'm attempting to make it clear to every single chucklefuck. It really doesn't have anything to do with investment, as I'm having an incredibly slow day. The investment is some stupid wish that I'm not being misunderstood, which seems inevitable at this point. More attempts at clarification that I wasn't trying to impugn his credibility seem to mean the exact opposite due the little trap of "if you don't care, why are you responding so much?". Because I'm some degree of ASD and have trauma from childhood about being misunderstood. Chill.
