jimboatobx... i see this is your first post on ihub ever so i dont know if your real or not but i would tell you that if you need financial advice a message board is not where to get it! you would be better off googling your questions and spend the day reading than asking for advice from penny traders myself included...keeping your shares restricted or unrestricted is really a personal choice... i personally enjoy my shares to be unrestricted and as far as the r/m question i hope the r/m affects my shares... as in be worth a lot more money as the assets brought into USFM will multiply exponentially!
