In the past I've never gotten very much out of these things (for example I received just over $9 last year from a settlement involving BAC), but usually I do take the time to do the paperwork.Elliot Wilenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09100832825053274916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465015914589377788.post-55977207412949649642011-10-20T05:32:38.617-04:002011-10-20T05:32:38.617-04:00@Gene: I had this experience when a company whose...@Gene: I had this experience when a company whose stock I owned raised some extra cash by issuing some new shares.

He talks of how companies often make spinoff securities very confusing so that people are disinclined to want to keep them. Those insiders know their true worth and load up on them.<br /><br />Yes, I know it's incomprehensible that insiders would try to deceive a company's owners, but I'm sure it is exceedingly rare! ;-)genehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05608927986297939720noreply@blogger.com
