... but the greed of the original investors, in closely holding 30 million shares

But isn't that the case with most IPOs? There is a small float and the "total number of shares outstanding" is generally 10 times the float, sometimes even higher. Just take a look at AMZN, AOL and YHOO. Even they had small floats and a large "total number of shares outstanding" to begin with.

I don't know what you would consider as a "home run", but for me, even if it is a 4 or 5-bagger, that is good enough. I mean, how much more greedy can I get?!
