RE:RE:Can we sell those Ventura shares at all?
RE:RE:Can we sell those Ventura shares at all? That is pretty cool - and a nice windfall for sure! I would hazard a guess that they had more assets than a tax loss and $0.01 at the time of delisting, so not necessarily an apples to apples comparison, but this is a good example of why I might regret my decision some day.
Still, I got my $8,000 out and invested now, and for the next ten years........
