Are you serious? $900,000 for a $20K investment 15 months ago???? What were the names of those stocks? Anyway, for taxes, USUALLY how the deal would be structured is a tax-free exchange of your $0.25 shares for the non-public shares, which then probably had some other tax-free things happen to them while the red-herring was approved and then finally once public after the IPO you sell at $90 -- retaining the original purchase date and cost when you paid $0.25 Please e.mail me your next 45 bagger, okay?
