Fly, I may understand you are trying to save folks from unwise decisions in investments with their hard earned money.
Youse state:
Yes I do love numbers, Kind of puts a face on things, Youse gets my drift?
how many shares were sold to make this $5 million business? Just curious.
My answer:
Doesn't matter, there are 2 real clear reasons why:
1. share value will correct itself, over the years there has been oil companies that have started both in the USA and foreign countries (you probably have heard of a few of them), at the time of their start there were folks that believed in them and took a risk. Some of those companies grew to be quite large and extremely profitable.
If by chance your grandfather may of purchased you 100,000 shares in one of them companies 50 years ago,
Would you be just absolutely elated with his forsight, today?
2. Just do a little research and you will find a tiny little nation in the Persian Gulf that has a population of just under 10,000,000 people.
They currently are bringing into their country $350,000,000 a day in pure profit. That is $35,000,000 net profit per person per day.
Do me a favor and pick which scenerio you would pick for grandchildren.
1. Take a chance of some small little biodeisel company and monday morning buy 100,000 shares at a cost of under $900.00.
2. Continue sending money to that little biddy Persian Gulf country so their grandchildren can stay on course with an income of $35,000,000 per day.

I know you will blow this off because you have an agenda here, but you really do need to think about the above for your grandchildrens sake.............
