Ahh the old free shares fairytale. Unless somebody actually gave you shares you had to buy them . And you paid money for them . Meaning they were far from free . So if you sold shares and got your principal investment back the remaining shares would have been profit if you had of sold them . So you lost 100% of your profits and now own a worthless stock . Cool investment strategy on how not to make money.
