I think you are overselling how exclusive IPOs are... There are plenty of investors 'only' worth millions, not 10s of billions (??? that's like 100 individuals world wide...), that get offered IPOs by large brokerages as a be

Maybe you should have more candid discussions about where you want to be with whoever it is you report to... I think the first step would be making sure you know what you want, they know what you want, and everyone is on the same page to

Yeah, it sucks, but it says more about individuals WITHOUT funding and their complete lack of efficacy. Once any individual with any potentially legitimate complaint is given the resources to fight back, it becomes a much fairer battlegroun
