Apparent hoax. "Globex Financial Investment Consulting" appears not to exist and "Cyberpets Entertainment" returns 1-2 of 5 hits. Delete. &mdash;  F REAK OF N URxTURE  ( TALK )  15:42, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
 * In that case, his claim to fame appears to be from posting on the internet. Delete for lack of verifiability.  Friday (talk) 15:45, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. "Globex Financial Investment Consulting" would be unlikely to be a bona fide company if its Editor-in-Chief was really only 14 (and simultaneously "President of Cyberpets Entertainment, a division of Global Systems"). Obvious fantasy/vanity/general silliness. Flapdragon 16:09, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete It's a hoax, the guy is 16! --BadSeed 16:01, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. A 16 y/o market watcher = a 16 y/o market spectator. Why would he link to pictures of websites instead of just the websites themselves? Hoax. JHMM13 16:05, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
 * I seem to remember Globex as the company which poached Homer Simpson away from the Springfield power plant. Delete hoaxex. Tonywalton | Talk 16:19, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm the originator of this version of this artice. Globex Financial Investment Consulting no longer exists. Its web site has been offline for more than a year. I noted its demise, and the same for Cyberpets (formerly located at http:/www.cyberpetshome.com and http://www.cyberpetshq.com, and now uploaded but not functional at http://www.sitesire.com). Cyberpets had thousands of active accounts in its peak. The original thing was making fun of him pretty much, and it was up for weeks, so I made it serious and talked about things he had done/ is doing when that got deleted. Maybe I shouldn't have? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.100.36.139 (talk • contribs) 15:14, November 29, 2005
