More information available on the TIL FAQ and wiki. And his own subreddit where you can talk to him. I have before for one comment. I think he was insulting me in a joking way. He goes to every con known to man to milk nerds out of every penny they have.

I seriously doubt he'd ever be broke so long as he can wheel his ass to the local BiMonSciFiCon for a quick buck. I doubt he's broke, he's still a big name to people. He is still in all the Priceline commercials. Guest appears on plenty of shows some times coming back for other episodes. Psych comes to mind.

TIL - in William Shatner sold 65, of his priceline shares at $ each. Today, those shares would be worth $63,, : todayilearned

I think it was a trailer and pickup truck though. Still, feel good for him for getting a career going again.

I would have sold also, the 63Mil would have been nice, but the WWW market was tanking at that point and I feel it was a good choice; at that point weren't they just discounting gas? BTW, he is still doing commercials for them and has made more than three times that since then on those commercials alone. I wish I knew. I was getting cheap gas on base. The closest site to this I used back then was pricewatch. Actually, his 65, shares from would not be 65, shares today.

Priceline had a 1: Exactly, still a good chunk of change. Would be enough for me to pay off the rest of my student loans, have a nice rainy day fund, then I'd likely look to invest the rest in something else.

The odds of the company actually surviving were low. There were so many competitors that went under. I ended up with a little under 12, shares. My boss said it was the stupidest thing and sold them off at. I thought I had made a killing. My Dad sold Texas Instruments IPO stock to buy my mother's wedding ring. Instead he bought a huge ruby and some diamonds.

For all we know he used it to fund a lab that will come up with the cure for cancer in five years from now, or drugs and hookers, whatever - it's motherfucken William Shatner. TIL in , SilasX mothballed his Bitcoin mining rig. I heard him on an old recording on Howard Stern a couple weeks ago talking about how he would not sell his priceline shares because it was going to make him a shit load of money Why is this newsworthy?

People sell off shares of stock that later goes up dramatically all the time. Sounds like good PR for Priceline, maybe.

Things like this make me wonder. What if the buyer or majority buyer of almost all of them had some kinda of hand in making them worth more? I know nothing about shares and stocks or anything People, for some bizarre reason, seem to sell off options as soon as they vest because a company is slightly down.

Well, I got some of those options too and have since greatly diversified. Haven't really increased in net worth since then though quite some time.

A lot of people with stock options don't have much liquid assets. Meh, paycheck to paycheck is somewhat sustainable Odd that his stock in the company would be 63 billion when the company a a whole is worth only Use of this site constitutes acceptance of our User Agreement and Privacy Policy.

Priceline Drops William Shatner as Spokesperson; Actor Goes Out in 'Blaze of Glory' | Hollywood Reporter

He's probably broke now. Dude has a reddit account and everything. That's what everyone wants. Nerd who goes to cons.

I would go to Cons to make money too. I would be insane to deprive myself. Who ever said it was the celebrity? He was drinking JimBeamMeDown. Either way he's not doing too bad.

What are their quarterlies out or something? I doubt he cares that much. I think he is even a mod of two subreddits. And Shatner was their spokesman then too? There, I said it. You have no idea what he made with that money. I thought they were gone? Besides, he didn't sell them all.

I'm bad at reading. Posts are automatically archived after 6 months.
