Indeed. Put these tens of millions of dollars where they rightfully
belong: in my pocket. I own Boeing (well, a very little part of it).
I understand this might sound shocking in some parts of the world, but
the reasons I bought Boeing shares are because I expect to resell these
shares later for more that what I paid for them AND collect dividends
along the road. This concept is known as "capitalism" in some parts of
the world.
