For the bragging rights.
It was already about to be delisted and I think it was sub $1/share. So I looked up how much I'd need to own to match the largest individual investor, and decided.
I could have invested the paltry amount (I actually cannot remember how much, but it was < $10k in my IRA) in something worth while, or... burn it all to own more more than any other individual investor at the time that I did it.
I only held for a couple of days, before selling it at a ~70% loss - or vanguard liquidating when it delisted - I cannot remember now.
But it was a fun ride and brag I got to have. People at the office cheered for me. People in my house berated me.
