RE:Waiting for Godot?I have been invested in this company for twenty years. There has always been a very slight possiblity of partnership or buyout. Every year the liklihood decreases but it is still above zero. And the potential payout is such that I may get at least half my money back, despite being down more than 90% at this time (based on average cost over many years of buying).
I cannot possibly sell. It would be terrible to sell after twenty years and then see the buyout one month later!
So I'm stuck with a crappy company that has terrible management and few legitimate prospects. I'm sure this happens all the time.
