I own a decent amount of shares, but not one of the really big boys with 40-50 million. If you are smart and patient, you can turn your shares into millions. Say you have 800,000 shares and we open on Nasdaq at $4.00-why not sell 50k-that gives you $200,000. Not bad-get rid of credit cards, pay off the car, etc and give a little away. Now we are at $6.00 per share-sell another 50k-that's $300,000-now you have $500,000-not bad. OK, so you have been patient and we hit $10.00-now sell 100,000 shares for a cool $1 million bucks. So now you have collected 1.5 million dollars off 3 sells and still have 600k shares. If you can't make it now, you are in bad shape.
