What does this matter? This is a BB stock, shareholders don't have any voting rights anyways. If a CEO of another BB stock owned one share of PS and wanted to vote himself a $5 million dividend, who is to stop him? Also don't you think JD deserves to have the say in what the company does since he is the one who started it? If I came up with this great of an idea I sure as hell would want control. Plus why would JD want to throw everything away by voting on a dividend wiping out a couple hundred thousand in cash and putting the company under, when he can stick with it and make millions?

Cav, Monday I will take the time to post my perspective regarding JD's preferred shares. Until then I will say IMO you are soured by the recent decline in the stock price and have let it taint your judgement. Its not fair by any stretch to make a statement regarding JD taking advantage of his position and taking dividends. I bet for 50 million you could have controlling interest in TCBG. There are a few investors with 1/2 million plus in TCBG and they certainly are not concerned. Nor am I. Earl
