    You had MENSA for 5 years, that's great, Ed! You must be in remission now?

    And that could be an early sign of Wisenheimer's Disease, which is irreversible.

    The minimal was 160 in my college days. Unless one takes an age related test later, everyone can expect their calculated IQ to decrease over time and brain damage. Yes I am aware that now many different testing criteria can be used, but unfortunately they do not measure maturity ratios.

    :rolleyes: Don't be too sure of that Mr. Wooderson. :smuggrin: I know for a fact that two members of CT have the number and his email which is much easier to get.

    ed wood 654, posted: "I'm saying I am a full member of MENSA for the past 5 years and you have to have a IQ OF 132 to join which I have."

    I see English grammar is not a requirement. I have the same problem as you seem to have, my mind works faster than my fingers. Anyway, I had always heard that the IQ required to join MENSA was over 145 as a meager 132 seems pedestrian to me. Perhaps I've been hanging around with a group of misinformed :bucktooth:dummies.

    Well, I just looked and you are correct! Thanks for the info. A teacher once told me that intelligence is not what's in our heads - it's knowing how and where to find the answers and what we do with that information. ;)

    PS My curiosity has been raised. The world of professional numismatists with your credentials is a small one. Please save me the time it takes to make a few phone calls and let us know what TPGS you worked at and when. :yawn: My bet is you were one of the Journeymen that worked at PCGS when it was new.
    Good Luck with your venture! :happy:

    That's the last I'll have to do with you. I cannot understand why you are allowed to remain a member here.

    Exactly. Who would glorify a man like Shkreli? Facing 20 years in prison, increasing a drug to $750 a pill cause of what it treats (daraprim if youre curious) and god knows what else. The man's face if very punchable if you ask me and yet Mr. Wooderson idealises the man. What does this tell you about Ed's so called soon to be business?

    Probably more like something a notch below SGS though it seems pretty obvious basically everything he says is made up like when he bought the half mil or so Green coin as a casual pickup :rolleyes:. From the various ages hes claimed in his threads PCGS was anywhere from like 5 years to 12 years old before he was even supposedly conceived

    MENSA, WOMENSA, doesn't matter which bathroom you choose, as long as it's empty before, during, and for some time after your occupation.
    Please have your minions correct your typos before posting in the future as it could be construed as a lack of intelligence to the untrained eye.

    Where is the library portion of the office? Have you ever been to CNG, The whole building is basically book shelves with a couple desks squeezed in-between...

    Some constructive criticism, I would get a little more experience in the hobby and business side before investing in architects and floor space. I know that's the flashy and fun part of dreaming big, but the reality of what you need from a space is going to be different once you gain enough experience. Alternatively, I would suggest you go visit large dealers (CNG, Stacks, Berk, Heritage, etc.) to get a sense of what their space looks like, and I'm talking about their office space not their showroom floor...

    A lot of the flack you are getting in this thread is because your floor plans leave out a lot of really important things. I understand you saying they were preliminary, quick mock ups or whatever. The fact remains, leaving out a library and a safe from coin store plans is like leaving out a watering system for a golf course. It's an obvious oversight which diminishes your credibility. Pushing back will continue that trend, whereas a bit of humility and recognition of the oversight may start to reverse it.

    I'm sure you're very proud to be part of a group for which only about 120 million people are eligible. That's quite an achievement! Oh, wait, it's not actually an achievement at all, just an accident of birth. Congratulations, I guess.

    If you ever decide you'd like to set your sights a bit higher:

    Seems like the only thing MENSA does is give narcissistic people a medal to wave in front of others when trying to argue their intelligence level. I've always thought the most intelligent people don't need to go around saying, "I'm so smart and I have proof." The intelligence is apparent in the way they conduct themselves.

    There's an awesome documentary about Metal music (can't remember the name at the moment). It has interviews with some bands who made it and some who never quite did. The biggest difference I noted while watching was that the guys who didn't make it were idiots. They talked about girls and partying with the interviewer. The guys who made it, despite their on stage appearances, were all pretty much super smart. Guys like Dave Mustaine and Alice Cooper don't need to go around telling others they are smart. Their intelligence is evident in their well thought out responses.

    Here's one for you. Alice Cooper (out of makeup & wearing a jacket and open collar white shirt) came over to a pool table where I was practicing how to transfer "spin" from the Q-ball to another ball and asked if I wanted a game. I thanked him and said no as I was just playing around trying to learn the game. He started playing by himself on another table. About ten minutes later, a lady came up to me and asked if I knew who I was talking with. I said no. :facepalm:
