luckily for me my mom is a corporate attorney who made a career of wrighting prospectuses and other business documents, and my dad has done underwriting in the past so my cost basis would be low.

Perhaps you should take a course in writing. I am not referring to your typo.
if you don't understand show your post to your mother.

I don't think you would be able to raise a nickel.
what do you have to offer?

recently, I have been entertaining the idea of taking myself public. The stock would consist of all my assets, and investors would buy the stock beacuse they would belive that my net worth will increase. Since I am currently a business student in college this is very likely. Does anyone know if this has been tried in the past? Any insights? Thanks.

nothing special about doing that,

there's a lot of people that take themselves public


even chickens have done it,
and their nuggests are traded at the McDonald's exchange...

it's an internet forum, writing doesn't have to be perfect.

I think if I can show I can raise the book value of the stock x amount every year (through stock trading, job etc) I think this could be a logical investment.

Interesting concept. Of course there are a ton of barriers, but I like the thought.

What % of yourself would you plan to take public? Incentive to perform would need to remain intact... and investors can't really replace the "Board" of yourself.
