DISCOVERY
DAY

IS
THURSDAY
AT THE BAY

By Pastor VICTOR STOBBE
Church

The first letter of each of
the words, “secure or suf-
fering” spells out the distress
signal “SOS.” The reality of
our financial security has
caused many, upon examin-
ation of the subject or the
experience of the loss of sec-
urity, to hang out the dis-
tress signal SOS.

We are again looking back
to the “good old days” when
we talk about financial sec-
urity. Uncertainty concern-
ing jobs, investments and
business ventures has set our
state of security in jeopardy.

The variety of economic
slumps has resulted in suf-
ferings, not only financially
but also physically, due to
our physical and emotional
inability to handle the stress-
es resulting from the loss of
our security.

Book sales dealing with
financial success are on the
inerease. They appear in a
variety of titles, such as:
“Borrow Your Way to Suc-
cess,” “Be Your Own Boss,”
“How to Get Rich,” “Money,”
“Think Cash,” “Make it Big,”
“Success,” “Work with Peo-
ple’s Money.”

Advertising gimmicks give
temporary hope to stay on
top. However, much of the
advice leads one on to dis-
illusionment and only delays
reality.

There are five factors con-
trolling wealth: natural re-
source and natural laws;
basic human needs; ‘wisdom
and inventive ability; human
strength and talent; and cir-
cumstances.

These factors control
wealth. If we place our con-
fidence to succeed in the
things that control wealth we
will then put our confidence
in natural resources, human
abilities or a successful com-
pany. Our loyalties and de-
votion will be to the factors.

However, wealth is ul-

Let's look at the five fac-
tors under God's control.

ANNUAL

1. God created natural re-
sources and natural laws. “In
the beginning God created
the heaven and the earth”
(Genesis 1:1).

WEDDING RECEPTION . . . Dora Tweedale Simpk

inson and C. Harold Simpkingon of

Trail were recently honored at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Charters of Castlegar.

Some 80 guests attended the happy event.

2. God i d basic
Lovey Pathe: Record e
tay hee nd ofl chen Births & Funerals
=

8. God gives Wisdom and
Inventive Ability. “I wisdom
dwell with prudence and find
out knowledge of witty in-
ventions” (Proverbs 8:12).

4. God sustains Human
Strength .and Talent. “For
who maketh thee to differ
from another? and what hast
thou that thou didst not re-
ceive...” (I Corinthians 4:7).

5. God controls Circum-
stances. “Ye looked for much,
and, lo, it came to little; and
when ye brought it home, I
did blow upon it . . .” (Haggai
1:9).

The conclusion is when we
trace all wealth to God, we
free ourselves to find true
security and true riches in
our relationship with Him,
for He can ‘never ‘be des-
troyed or taken-away. Our
loyalty and devotion is not to
be in the land but in the Lord
our God.

Meanwhile, a firm apparently affiliated with Year-

Calgary, where commodities trading isn’t regulated by

A lawsuit has been filed by two investors who say
they lost $85,000 each at Yearcome. And a Yearcome
official testified at a hearing of discovery in Vancouver on
Feb. 1 that he couldn't say whether trade orders taken by
the company were ever executed in Hong Kong.
One of Yearcome’s investors was Herb Capozzi, a
former member of the B.C. legislature and professional

Another affiliate in Singapore, Yearcome PTE., Ltd.,
was shut down by court order on Oct. 28 on the recom.

conducting business in a way detrimental to clients.
LOSE THOUSANDS

Some of the B.C. investors say they lost as much as
$40,000. Cari Evers, a Victoria pensioner who was im-
pressed with the company's sales pitch at the Empress
Hotel, says he saw a major portion of his life savings
wiped out with an $18,000 loss.

Stan Cass of Coquitlam and Dr. Bon Bon Hu of Delta
are suing Yearcome president Hudson Fung, now in Hong
Kong, and Francis Lee, the former manager of the Van-

The plantiffs’ lawyer, J.T. Rust of V » has
alleged in a statement of claim filed in B.C. Supreme
Court that Yearcome investors were charged gold
storage fees when no gold was stored and that his clients
are not satisfied that all trade orders were executed in
Hong Kong as they were supposed to be.

Fung acknowledged at the hearing of discovery that

storage fees were charged when only future contracts —

not bullion — were traded and he-said under questioning
by Rust that he could not be certain all of the plaintifts
trades were executed. The hearing adjourned because
Fung was leaving for Hong Kong on Feb. 2.

A Yeareome account executive, Don Mah, took
company documents to the RCMP in October after he
became concerned about the way business was being
done. He was fired after he went to the RCMP and has
launched a wrongful dismissal suit.

Sources close to investigations into Yearcome say
the investor losses at Yearcome were at least $2 million,
but Mah, the account executive, puts the figure at $4.5
million. That was among financial details Mah turned

Meantime, neither the RCMP nor the B.C. Superin-
tendent of Brokers Office, which received 20 complaints
from Yearcome investors, plan any further action after
carrying out investigations because commodity trading in
the province has never been regulated and no hard
evidence can be found to warrant criminal action.

Co. of Toronto shows.

Ottawa, Toronto, Montreal and Halifax were the
cities where the market was strongest. Nationally, prices
were higher in the East, stable in Manitoba and Sas-
katchewan, and weak in Alberta and British Columbia.

150 markets across Canada, tracks the prices of three

Edmonton prices were mostly lower, with the
executive house in St. Albert off $13,000 to $125,000, the
bungalow off $2,000 to $80,000 and the townhouse off
$3,000 to $53,000.

Prices were unchanged in East and West Vancouver.
In North Vancouver, the executive house rose $10,000 to
$178,000, the bungalow $4,000 to $125,000 and the

types of houses: a si 112-sq

a six-room 120-square-metre bungalow, and an eight-

two to eight years old, typical of their neighborhoods and
within average commuting distance to the downtown

area.
