Your datapad beeps with a message of high importance from Corporate Alliance, seeing as you haven't heard much about them in the last few months you decide for curiosity's sake to check into it. The screen fades up to show Horley Cyan, current President and Trade Co-Director ready to start.
"Some of you may not remember, but several months back Corporate Alliance opened up it's first investment club return. Since that time, many a bump in the road has come our way and I am more than pleased to report that the investment club was very successfull. For those that decided to give us the chance were very happy indeed to receive an approximate 30% return on their investments, and believe you me, I was more than happy to pay it to them."
Horley's joyous expression shifted slowly from one of jovial to one of seriousness.
"After thinking long and hard about what Corporate Alliance should do next, my partner, Bren Morgarr, and myself came to the conclusion that we are more than interested in participating and hosting a second term of the investment club.
"We are currently accepting investments for the next term up to and including Feb.15, 2005. Please note, that in order to be most effective and fair to all participants in the investment club, there will be caps placed on the amount a being can invest. If you have any questions what so ever regarding this new term, then by all means feel free to contact myself at Corporate Alliance and I will be more than happy to answer your questions. I look forward to hearing from you all."
The screen starts to fade as Horley Cyan faces the camera fully and the sparkling smile returns to his face.
