"you're confusing cash with assets"
you are incorrect again. I wrote assets, because I was talking about total assets(which, this sounds like it's going to blow your mind, includes cash!)
maybe you aren't reading closely enough and are conflating my comments with the one sentence in the two articles you don't like for some weird reason?
your next comment kind of explains another one of your blind spots:
"And, for pedantic ness: "what the fuck are you talking about?""
questions are not pedantic.
you can't find out what somebody else meant unless you ask them a question.
what you are doing is assuming an answer and then extrapolating off of that, which is very easy for you to attack, but is often wrong because you're making things up.
The fact that you've finally except in my tutoring and have begun asking questions is a huge step forward.
I'll go look for someone who knows how to golf clap.
"I sort of assumed that basic literacy"
that sounds like it's your problem, you should stop assuming basic literacy and practice reading.
If you're just assuming literacy, in your head it sounds good, but out here it is rough for others to deal with you.
"So again, what "mistakes" are you correcting? "
that there's no way to confuse 300 with 400.
that you can't tell the difference between an opinion and a number from financial audit.
that because of one incorrect number you're dead set that both articles are wrong, even though their numbers are from the financial audit that you originally referenced.
you mistake a statement for a question.
there are more, but four of your mistakes should be enough of a start for you to recognize a few of your errors.
don't want to move too fast for you.
ps, good work on finally asking a question!
all I had to do was teach you what a question was for half a dozen comments comments consecutively and you learned!
that's progress.
