Sounds fukkin crazy, right? Just hear me out.
*Interested members get together and decide a set amount of money to be put up for the initial startup. It doesn;t have to be big money either. We can start really small and work our way up. Say something like 20-25 members put up an initial starting fee of $1000-$2000.
*We elect officers to oversee the operation. This would include electing a president/presiding partner to hold meetings, preside over them, and plan activities.
*A vice president/assistant presiding partner who fills in when needed.
*A treasurer who deals with the brokerage, buys and sells stock, and keeps records of the club's holdings as well as each member's share. This needs to be a very detailed-oriented person.
*A recording secretary, who keeps minutes of each meeting, reminds members of meetings when necessary, and possibly mails out minutes to members who miss a meeting along with a detailed script of the last meeting for the members who miss a meeting.
*If physically meeting at a location to discuss matters is an impossibility, then a phone number will be provided for those who can listen in on the meeting and ask questions over the phone.
*We can make a set minimum monthly contribution fee. Again, it doesn't have to be big, say $25-$50 a month to start. Members can contribute more if they want a bigger share in profits.
What say you SBR? Anyone interested?
