*AV* - as long as you were the one to bring up the IPO talk, I will let you in on it. But here is the real deal.
Not to be too egotistical but what does Raging Bull, Silicon Investor (go2net), or the street.com have that we could not put together and create yet another IPO wonder like thestreet.com.
This thread used to have a group of dreamers and visonaries. We saw quite a few man-weeks put in to create 3 years worth of April Fool's Websites and ancilliary reports and ads. We have all particpated in this chat forum or in chatrooms from ICQ or mIRC. I know for a fact that the old community here had the talent an expertise to create a company that could go public, if enough sweat equity was put in place.
I have the newsletter, a pathetic website, a domain name, no marketing, no sales, no ads, and alot of other no-this or that. One would think we could drum up enough interest to move to the next level, whatever the case may be. 49% of nothing is atill nothing but 49% of something could be pretty fantastic. If there are any dreamers still reading this thread, I have always been willing to give up 49% of this nothing to create something. Carve it out any way you want, but once the larger entity is fully established, and prior to any IPO, we can deal out worthless shares in anticipation that the market would receive this project with open arms.
The cost is the free time of the dreamers to build something from nothing. Once the something is created, I could easily throw the newsletter into the pot as my payment for the 51% interest in the company and all revenues beyond those that originally are in place, would get dealt out accordingly. You have nothing to lose but time and energy.
Any takers?
