I think you meant "will not go private". Nice to hear that deal went pretty good for you overall. In the 2008/9 crash, I knew zero about stocks and investing but I did recognize there was a rare opportunity to get in. I started in 2008 but couldn't get my application thru with the broker until 2009. I knew nothing. I bought some pennystocks and some big board, like Ford and BankofA. I did well with the big board stocks as the recovery commenced but the pennystocks, one by one, pretty much all went kaput eventually except for vplm. I made an initial investment and I never once went into the red, so my common sense did decent but the main thing was the market recovery circumstances. I stopped trading until I could learn more and afford to lose if things went that way. I went thru this whole scammy thing with a company "TIV" out of Bakersfield, CA. Unreal story that was. Similar in many ways to vplm. It even went BK and then actually came back from BK and went from pennies to over $17 and was around for near 50 yrs, and had a very beloved ceo for decades but it went rogue and scammy and shut down by SEC. I learned alot from that 5 yr long experience for me but even so, I still invested in vplm because it was a voip service provider and I was already aware of and had used voip and believed it was major up and coming industry. I got in long before the acquisition or any talk of patents. As soon as the acquisition was announced, which took at least over 2 yrs to complete, then Chang starred putting out those total bullshit PRs which I bought hook, line and sinker. The rest is history, lol. I made out ok in the end before swearing off any more vplm buying. Very lucky.

All my commentary is to be considered as my personal opinions, to which I am entitled. And there is no proof of said opinions unless I offer it in the comments.
