You know how much your payroll is, you know how much your monthly operational expenses are, and you know how much your contracts are. Hell, go to the financials and look what you spent in November last year. Take 2008 to date and divide it by 10. It's not that hard and there's no point in being vague about it.

        re: the IM, I meant the GM guy isn't trustworthy. His answers are the type from someone who is dodging and hiding something. -- nm - Max Nov 19, 12:23
        
        "I don't know what the hell you just said" = I don't understand why you're giving me an answer that doesn't address my question. -- nm - Max Nov 19, 12:07 1
