Farm stock plan keeps children tied to estate
A farmer divides his 1800 acre estate into blocks of stock in a real joint stock company. He transfers controlling shares to himself at first, then gives each child a block. Daily family director meetings manage the business, with stockholders’ meetings as required by law. Eight children remain, five have returned from college, two daughters attend college now and plan to return after graduation. The plan funds a surplus through a special checkbook system and one outlier son pursued law.
