Yes, It happens quite often. The two companies agree to "turn in" their stock at a agreed upon value and receive stock in a newly formed or "merged company". Though usually called a merger of equals one of the former original companies is seen as dominant or the "winner"

Some companies do allow you to buy stock directly from them. They use Direct Purchase Plans (DPP) and a Dividend Reinvestment Plans (DRIP).

I can't answer this specifically for those companies, but what generally happens is that your stock is converted to stock in the new company, at a rate specified by the takeover company. (1 share in the new company for every 2 shares owned in the target company, for example)  You should receive a letter soon, explaining what has happened.

You do not have enough capital to make it worth your trouble.  But if you must, better visit sharebuilder.com.

If you're talking about the Everglades Holiday Park, they are not a public company, so they don't offer shares for sale.  You might look to buy another similar company in the industry that is for sale.

Yes, it is possible.  You generally have to apply through your brokerage and state your occupation and salary just in case so they know.  \n\nBuying on Margin is more risky since you are borrowing. Be sure to check your brokerage's interest rates and their margin requirements and when they might do a margin call.\n\nIf you do get into trouble, I would advise selling your stock before raising more cash for your account.

In different ways according to the company scheme and how high up the management chain you go.  At bottom you save money in a building society run scheme (employee sharesave or similar name) which you can use to buy shares at a discount at the end of a specified period (3 yrs or 5 yrs usually). You don't have to buy the shares. \nAnother company provides 1 share for every two you buy, then they are held on your behalf for a qualifying period. These are usually worthwhile schemes.  \nStock options usually refers to part of the fat cats remuneration package, and is simply an option to buy company shares (at a heavy discount) at a stated price and date in the future. Very nice if you can get it.

Yes, you have to pay taxes on the gain. You can deduct your basis (what you previously paid to acquire or maintain the domain name), but you do owe taxes on the profit. If you have owned this domain name for more than a year, you may treat this as a long-term capital gain, which will be subject to a lower tax rate.

No, you cannot.  If you do so, your business will be considered a holding corporation, which is illegal.  A corporation has the right to own stocks in other companies, but it must have an ongoing business before it can.

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.

Hi! I think we met before but I don't think you saw my company presentation. Our company does offer products that people use everyday. Please see the company's presentation for more information.

I don't think so. Many companies give incentives to employees and their friends and families to refer business. As long as you're not doing anything unethical, its fine.

Apparently not.  \n\nAll I can say, is that I don't have a "demat" account, whatever that is, but buying shares is not a problem.

Assuming you sell the stock for a gain and you hold the stock in your own name (not an IRA, 401k, etc.), yes you do.  You can't do a like kind exchange as you can with assets like real property.

No, as long as you don't sell, there is not a taxable moment.  So, you won't have to pay tax on any gains on your stockes until you actually sell them (or transfer them to another person).
