DES, i'm starting to get the distinct feeling you don't like me.

btw, at least in the example you gave me i had either a card or a bike. But let's look at your situation. Let's say a company offered to pay you $2,000,000 and 3 mil shares for your idea (let's say we pick a number like 8,000,000--probably because you like a round numbers, we'll call that 10,000,000) , and let's say they never really give you the shares, but just let them sit in some attorney's safety deposit box until, not only do we find out if your idea works, but only if a lot of people will buy that idea. Now comes tax time, how much are you going to report on your tax return? and because you want a big house like bill gates (well maybe in your case it would be like Michael Dell) how much do you think the bank will loan you on those shares.
But if you were TVL it would not be a problem, because you could have your company value them at 10,000,000. And by the way, guruDES, it is the company that values them, not the accountants or lawyers, but then again what do i know, i'm not teaching the courses on financial analysis, that's what you do.
and i'll ask one more time, have you shorted the stock yet?

tz

ps

Shwoooooooooooooshhhh!!
