Sad but not surprising, I am sure the "Investment" group walked away with a nice profit.

Yep, so many good companies wrecked by investment firms that are there simply to suck the life out of it and move on. Bonus points for them if they get the employees pension fund. Predatory capitalism at its finest. This happened to my father-in-law’s company so seen it first hand.

Reputable, totally viable companies ruined by penny-shilling, morally bankrupt investment firms? Geez, never happens...

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
