Wanna here something really sad. My stepson bought some LRSY in his mother's online account...really his account but he was too young at the time to have his own. He bought 7000 shares of LRSY at .12 a couple years ago, of course it dropped to like .06 or something, so nice guy that I am I gave him .12/share cash to get him his money back. Then I forgot all about the account, he'd since opened his own and started trading only Naz and doing not so bad. Well about 6 weeks ago my wife got a letter from TD saying they were going to start charging her an inactivity fee for having the inactive account sitting there with just 7k LRSY. So to save the $15.00/quarter I dug out the account number, emailed the kid in New Zealand, got the trading password, and sold it for I think .025 and got about $170 Canadian which my wife took out of the account and closed it. Okay, so just now I tell her what happened....BIG MISTAKE, she figures I now owe her about $10,000 Cdn. So now I'm out the $1260 I gave the kid, the wife spent the $171, I'm in trouble with her for not knowing some POS shell would damn near hit a buck, and I don't even want to tell you where I sold my LRSY suffice to say I got my money back and was happy about it at the time.
