The Company was the Best for the Entire Advanced Leadership Camp 1968.

I was the only 2yr Senior Army ROTC Graduate that was in the Honor Units for
Both the Basic Officer Camp Ft. Benning and the Advanced Leadership Camp Ft Riley.

I was offered a Regular Army Commission if I signed off on my hearing loss.
This meant that I could not receive any disability for hearing loss service connected.
As I was unable to hear the important messages in training, I knew that in combat I could get my unit in bad situations where soldiers would die. So I just opted to be medically discharged. Attempts to get a special assignment to take in account my hearing loss had no success.

Venture Capital Potential

Nova Media Inc.

Incorporated in Michigan 1981 with 40 million non par value Class A Stock
and 10 million non par value Class B Stock.. I control the stock as CEO/President and
Founder with enough shares for a majority of issued ones.

While a SCOR U-&7 filing is possible for a few thousand in fees if one has a loyal customer list. Probably an I.P.O. using over the counter or a stock exchange such as the Vancouver is a more likely possibility. For there have been few SCOR that have worked successfully and the only stock exchange willing to list SCOR stocks after a certain time is the Pacific.

And there are those who just buy the majority ownership in a bankrupt public corporation. Then change the name. There are Securities Firms that specialize in this. At least I have heard that there are.

Going Public creates many daily headaches and expenses. The only reason I see is to gain business partners one would not be normally able to get as a private corporation. Or to reward investors and employees who you might not be able to pay what they are worth except with stock options.

Just remember I had a Securities Licenses, and studied the process of going public at different times over the last 30 years for my own corporation and how others went about it.
           

Recently I have been looking at the Pink Sheet Premier or Prime listings as the costs of auditing and filings are much less. Now some NASDAQ stocks are looking into the Premier as a way of avoiding recent auditing costs such as Sarbanes Oxley Act.
