"I don't feel that this is how it was intended".
I think you are absolutely correct. And while it did not produce a positive result for Germini, I think it did stimulate a lot of interesting posts.
The ones I found most interesting were the posts by folks who deride those who might be (insincere) 'moralists', as opposed to being perhaps just more generous of spirit, and perhaps monetarily as well. It wasn't enuf for them to simply say that Germini's trading practices were in accord with thier own views.
Interesting, wonder why?
Seems to me that the mud pile has been depleted!
BTW, I think the only thing I found really objectionable was the bragging aspect of the post. If you want to brag about getting the upper hand in any transaction (financial or other wise) its only interesting when the folks involved are equals. Not "candy from kids" stories.
FWIW.
