Yeah yeah. So she's ridin' high on the backs of all the sellers.

Reminds me of when I worked like a dog for a start up company. One morning the boss calls us all in to announce that he sold the company to a larger corporate entity. Donuts all around the table. Wow! Such largesse when he got several million in stock!

Well turns out the stock tanked before he got to divest of it. The corporation resold the company for several times its original purchase price but if you think such a move higher up the feeding chain makes for the ultimate payback think again. They declared bankruptcy and the stock was delisted.

I ain't impressed by all these honchos--they always take credit for stuff they never could do.
