It depends on your corporate structure. If you are a C-Corporation then, yes you can sell to anyone. \n\nIf you are and LLC or an S-Corporation then you have restrictions. With and S or LLC you cannot sell to foreigners. Also in an S-Corp I believe you can only sell shares to up to 75 shareholders, more than that and your S-Corp election is terminated and it becomes a C-Corp, and with an LLC I think 50 shareholders is the limit. (I am not sure on the actual number of shareholders but thats what I believe is correct, just know that it is less than 100, whereas a C-Corp is unlimited and unrestricted)

By doing that you automatically give up control of the company since they own 62% of it, meaning they can fire you anytime they want. Be careful here, there are several books available for people starting their own companies, I would consult one before giving away this much equity in your new company.

you can buy as few shares as you like, but the commission would eat up a larger portion of you available funds, the less you buy

Talk to the bank to take a business loan. If the profits are great, you'd be crazy to give away the share of the profits to an investor, just keep it to yourself.

Take them to a brokerage firm.  Open an account.  Sell away.

Company registration is a contry specific process and therefore you need to approach the local registrar. To float shares in public, there are lots of legal and/or finacial requirements that you may need to meet. For example, minimum autorized capital, minimum initial numebr of share holders, appointment at specific posts like company secretary, etc. As long as you hold over 50% share you will stay in control of the company. Therefore, you should never dilute your equity below 51%.\n\nMy recommendation is to start small - float a private company - focus on business - generate value/profits/customers - and then plan going public.\n\nBest of luck!

Just sell enough shares to cover the amount of money you originally invested.  For instance, if you put $1000.00 in a stock that was $0.50/share when you bought it, you should have around 2000 shares.  If the stock is now $1.00/share and you want to take out your initial investment, just sell 1000 shares.  Your sale should net around $1000.00 or 1000 shares which leaves only the profit invested.  You can then use the original $1000.00 to invest in another stock.

the best way to buy shares of your favorite stock is go directly through the company. The only catch is that some companies do not offer this option because an investment banking house such as Morgan Stanley, may make a market or sell the stock on the open market, for the company. Another way to say it is that the company you may want to buy shares in may not handle their own stock. Look on the company website under investor relations for an answer to that. If they dont offer stock, then find a low cost, internet based stock trading company such as ameritrade etc. But, buyer beware, just cause you know the company, doesnt mean you know the stock. Trust me!

Probably not.  It would be proof of holding stock at that particular period of time only.  A person should be able to get a record from the custodian of the shares to prove current ownership of shares.  Since shares are mostly dematerialized nowadays, they are held in your name by a custodial company.

no, shares are for parent companies only. I would recommend opening a second.

For buying and selling shares you should have a demat account in a bank and a broker who will deal on your behalf.Before you invest you should study the market closely and invest in reputed and safe companies.There are many bogus companies which try and cheat and one should be wary of such companies.
