BMF has invested for 300 shares of BAKEWELL.

This is great. BAKEWELL is starting to take off.

5. The issue is insured by an independent third party.

This made me chuckle. Usagi, I know you wear many different hats... but, um. I'll just leave it at that.

20,000 shares put aside for a founders stake. ... 2500 of these are going to initial investors who purchase 100 shares or more. This knocks me down to 17,500.
Then the dividends I receive on those 17,500 shares, 50% , are going into a shareholder protection fund. So initially, I only take 8.75%.

Just to clarify for those of you who tr;dr the thread:

If you want to get in right now, Ian will give you 10% more shares for free if you PM him and buy 100 shares or more.
These 10% extra shares come from Ian's "Founder Shares" aka, his management fee shares. He is giving these shares away to not only help get this first rigs up and running, but to also thank early investors.
Remember, the 10% bonus shares will only be matched for a total of 25,000 shares set aside for this special offer, and ONLY in you request it through a PM to ianbakewell.
I repeat, the shares for sale on GLBSE do not qualify for this offer, but are a great way to purchase shares if you can't afford 100+.

If there are any other fund managers considering BAKEWELL, really take a look at this offer.

@Ian,
You might want to look at getting that first rig up and running sooner than later. Getting any kind of dividend paid (not matter how small) will get a lot more investors to buy. It will show that BAKEWELL can generate income and is not "all talk."
