Out of al the investment groups EPI have to be the most stable.
I feel sorry for the chaps who went into the deal that guaranteed 30% in six months, and gave you a post dated cheque. My guess is that that cheque will bounce higher than you will when you find out that there's nothing there!!
We wait until Feb to see what happens - how can any business guarantee 30% in six months. When it's too good to be true, it normally is!!
