GM Tangible Book Value?

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009
mradigan747 asked:


I am curious about tangible book value. Many people use this metric as an insurance metric to ensure that their investment is secure against the assets of a company. If GM had a tangible book value, and the metric is accurate, why would common stockholders get nothing since the liquidation process should net sales? I understand the creditors should recieve their share, but shouldn’t the common stockholder recieve something since they had a positive TBV?

I unable to remember the name of the book just the author I want to give it to a friend to read. Plus I want to get the second book of the third book. I do recommend people to read this book. The book talks about the chip program and a lot of the stuff that’s beginning to happen. I have looked on amazon, google it even checked on youtube and google to no avail.These books are really great eye opener
Thanks Mom but I have all ready checked that out a few hours a go and it’s not it. If I do find it I’ll post it because I really think every one should read it, I’d say it really similar to George Orwell.
Mom I should have added the author is Johnny Twofeathers and not Manny but thanks again.

Jackson asked:


I am having a regents global history and geography now, but I am going to have AP world history next year and take the AP world history exam too, that is to say that I have to catch up what I have missed this year, can anyone tell which study aid is the best for me, can helps me get at least four out of five on the exam. I already had a Princeton review right now, but I think that the materials in there are not enough, maybe that review book is for people who had taken that course already.
I have very good at memorization, all that I need is a study aid that contains every topic for the exam, in other words, which study aid that if I memorized all the stuff in there and I will get five out of five !
Please share you idea
I’d prefer people who got good grade on the exam to answer
Thank you
