Give me the cash....will invest in better returns than an IPO:)

Pre IPO shares, sure, but post IPO you'd be better off buying them yourself.

I'll take some pre-IPO shares! :D

Shak,

Nothing like a good laugh first thing in the morning!

If Google were to give me pre-IPO shares (fat chance of that ever happening), they would be sold as soon as legally allowed. Something about “A bird in hand is better than....”
