Investing in shares etc is for mugs and big guys

Interesting story here where the big corporate investor walks away with a windfall and the so called Punk Investors lose their few quid.

https://www.theguardian.com/business/20 ... dApp_Other


Any deal could trigger a windfall for the 21% private equity investor TSG, which bought its stake in 2017.

But about 220,000 investors, who contributed £75m in crowdfunding across seven “equity for punks” rounds, could walk away with nothing.

Thats all you need to know.

Eircom cured Irish people of such nonsense.
That passed the time.
It would have passed in any case.
Yes, but not so rapidly
