MYEC bought GreenPay, not the shareholders! Shareholders buy and sell stock, that's all. What companies pay for aquisitions is up to management. If you don't agree with their decisions, you have the option of not buying their stock. Once again, Sierra Global is a private company. Ed is not required to disclose his interest in a separate entity from MYEC. If you don't like his lack of transparency, then you retain the option to not buy MYEC stock! ;&)
