Anyone out there a Disney Company Shareholder?

TimmyII · 02-24-2006, 12:41 PM

Any fellow Visions Fantastic-ears that are also shareholders of the Walt Disney Company?

I am, and have been since 1996 when I was hired by Disneyland. The day I was hired my parents purchased one share of stock for me, now I have close to 400 shares of Disney Stock.

I'm not, though I've always wanted to be - if no other reason than to attend the shareholder's meetings.

So how many shares would it take to own controlling interest in the company?

*Checks bank account*

I bought my wife one share for Christmas two years ago. She got a check in January of 2005 for a whole 24 cents, her profit from 2004. And this past January, she got her second check for 27 cents.

We're Rich!!!!!

The actual stock looks great, PLUS she has been invited to the Disney Shareholder meeting in March in Anaheim. (I can't go, though... no guests allowed...)

I purchased mine through oneshare.com. I paid $27 for the stock and $35 to transfer it in my wife's name.

disneyguy · 02-24-2006, 04:54 PM
