Casper, Even though you don't deserve the attention because you're likely a phony, I'll reply so people on this board hear it from me. Your psychoanalysis of my motivation is way off base. I didn't start Vdex because I'm pissed about losing money on a stock. I wouldn't spend hundreds of thousands of dollars and years of effort because I'm mad. There's a phrase that captures such behavior: throwing good money after bad. As LeAnne said, I don't think I made a bad investment in MNKD. In fact, I'm more convinced than ever that it will end up being one of the best investments I ever make. I suspect Vdex may be even better. and if that's the case you should have known that bringing a NON SUPERIOR Drug to Market with a Bad Label is almost a death sentence. Casper, this is just one example of how uninformed you are. Bill is not a doctor, but he is a businessman with both a law degree and a MBA from Washington University in St. Louis. |

Now you will say "I am a DOCTOR not a "Businessman" and if that's the case you should have known that bringing a NON SUPERIOR Drug to Market with a Bad Label is almost a death sentence.Casper, this is just one example of how uninformed you are. Bill is not a doctor, but he is a businessman with both a law degree and a MBA from Washington University in St. Louis. you are correct, I should have known about the rebate system and that a non-inferior label would not work with a rebate system that has had 30 years to freeze the system. But then I saw the CGM's and I thought the physicians would do the right thing.  I was wrong. Physicians don't care.   they just follow the standards of care. |

OK so he's a BUSINESSMAN.....Argue my points. He invested in a company without doing a thorough investigation and is losing his shirt on the investment and NOW he wants that company to give him a discount on selling their drug? That's not good BUSINESS. |

That's not good BUSINESS. Casper, I’m seriously not sure if you really mean the things you post or not or are just being humorous. Bottom line to your fears, if you would be serious, there is nothing to fear. If Bill would be elected to the board, there would be seven other board members - and at least four of the current board members, that would be there to ascertain MNKD takes the best course. In other words, majority will rule. What I want are a at least a few business savvy and serious MNKD shareholders on the board. Bill is certainly very business savvy, understands Afrezza and wants it to sell big time. Disregard his rhetoric. He knows how to work with people and grow money. |

That's not good BUSINESS. Most of us have paper losses on this stock so far - so you're saying we're all bad business people? Have you bought any and if not what are you doing here? How do you know that Bill has "lost his shirt?" And why is asking for distributor prices "not good BUSINESS?" (emphasis yours). Sounds like a good negotiating tactic to me. |

Disregard his rhetoric? How do you do that? Sorry, but I'm with Casper06 and am not a fan of Bill's. He started off really bad ... and has now mellowed a bit ... but still sucks Big Time. I will stick with Mike C and company.
But, that's mytakeonit

We’re not writing poetry, dancing ballet, or playing classical music. This is business. No place for the thin skinned my friend.

Yeah Bill has a bad habit.. he starts off telling people the truth, and then he keeps telling them the truth. And sometimes it hurts, and sometimes it’s hard to get your mind around what you thought could happen just isn’t happening. So it’s just easier to hate Bill:-)
I think you’ll like though his coming ideas of what’s possible.
He understands the medical community extremely well. Their unwillingness to prescribe.
A doctors they hired to work in one of the clinics had a bunch of samples on a shelf that he’d never even looked at. Never bothered.
They put the doctors through training until their lights go on, and then it’s ...Holy moly!
If the doctor doesn’t understand it why would he bother to prescribe it? Especially when it takes so much more time and effort to get the person to realize the potential of the benefits and results they could have.
Education equals retention.
Time with the patient equals retention.
Really caring about the patient is everything.

And when his next ideas come up ... I must just remember ... not to click on it. Ha!

HFM is a distraction while we wait for MC and Co plans to come to fruition.
I’ll go on record that most will forget it existed, and about this board nonsense, within two years.

Bill has a serious conflict of interest by owning a business that solely relies on Afrezza. Not sure how this is even legal let alone ethical to allow him to be on the board?
