@ pablo apparently you either cannot read or you cannot comprehend what you read because I don't see anywhere in the article that says he was begging for money to save his loan $4million dollars loan and "life worth". Since then in October Mr frett provided $80,000.00 of his own money to save his marina that was managed by the BVI investment club. Sometimes in life you have money and sometimes you don't. Before you and others open your mouths think if you can raise $4million dollars from one bank in the BVI and God knows how much he raised from other banks. He must have good credibility. The way the economy is now it is very difficult to raise a dollar from the banks. This man worked 7 days a week to build his empire and it is sad to see how the banks threat him after they already made millions of dollars in interests on his loans. I wish there were many like him to stand up and fight for you rights then we would have a better BVI.
