Being a bank stock holder and having watched my family's fortunes flourish due to a late 1950's bank stock purchase, I have (over the past 5 years) purchased a few shares in each of two new local start-up banks.
One of the banks has already been listed on the OTCBB, the other is only now completing its 2nd year in business and continues to grow nicely while catering to local businesses. I think that I heard/read somewhere that they had to complete two years in business prior to applying to be listed on any exchange....correct??....Brewer??....anyone??
I [-]understood[/-] understand that any trading market will be thin for some time and I TRULY bought these for the long haul ~ 15-20 years.....but got to wondering if others on this board may have had a similar opportunity over the years!!??....experiences??....stories??.....life lessons!??
