11 Year Old Investor Upset That His Facebook Shares Have Not Been Filled

NY Post – Facebook billionaire Mark Zuckerberg will not get a friend request from this 11-year-old any time soon. Fifth-grader Sam Lesser is one of a long line of average-Joe investors who still don’t know if their orders for Facebook shares have been filled — three days after he plunked down $10,000 on the company. “They are holding my money hostage,” said Lesser, a student at The Town private school who lives on the Upper East Side. The stock trader’s dreams of owning a small slice of Facebook turned into a nightmare on Friday, when he and his mother found out his order for 300 shares may not have been filled due to Nasdaq computer glitches. Lesser — who likes to play football and tennis when he’s not playing the stock market — anted up $10,000 by using the profits from the small business he started, called SML Networks. His company sells bracelets and skateboards, mostly to classmates and neighbors. “It’s really disappointing, because we could have made money on this,” he said. He would know. Lesser owns a stake in Apple — which he bought when he was 5. He won’t say how much it’s worth. As for his Facebook trades, Lesser and his mom are still haggling with officials at their local Fidelity Investments. “We’ve spoken with three senior traders and nobody seems to have any answers at Fidelity,” said Lesser’s mom. “We feel misguided and misled,” she said, adding that some of her son’s potential profits were going to go to Lance Armstrong’s LiveStrong charity.
I’ve seen a lot of little assholes over the years at Barstool New York. 12 year old geniuses going to college and 10 year old club DJs and all sorts of shit. But this little fucker here takes the cake. Sam Lesser is the biggest square I’ve ever encountered. 11 years old sitting at home selling stocks like a dickhead. Goes to a private school that costs 35 grand a year. Peddling bracelets around town like a fuckin Girl Scout. And don’t think you’re fooling anyone for a second with that “I play football when I’m not trading stocks” bullshit. Sure you do, Nancy Drew.
There’s nobody worse than these little over achieving son of a bitches. Thinking they’re gonna be the next Warren Buffet because while other kids his age are playing pickup hoops or riding their bikes or trying to finger girls, they set up lemonade stands and bake sales or start trading stocks because they want to make money or some shit. Hey Sam I got news for you, bro – you ain’t Warren Buffet. You’re just a nerd. You could probably just collect like 20 grand at your Bar Mitzvah like everyone else at your school and you wouldn’t have to sit around wasting your childhood arguing with Fidelity account managers about whether your shares have settled.
PS – Yes, I’m just jealous this kid has more money than me.

35k per year and it only goes through 8th grade, fuck this jewbag and his stock options.
I don’t get it, he should be glad his orders didn’t get filled its down about $25% since the IPO. Kid would have gotten raped on this.
im sure some little faggot’s company selling bracelets and skateboards to classmates netted him $10k. lets be honest, his pops gave him all this money and he probably lets him do this investment shit to keep him and his mother occupied, she seems like quite the cunt herself. and football? good one…..
definitely bro…you go long FB and the market goes offered right in your face. Get the number of the truck that ran you over in your scottrade account you dweeb.
blah blah Lance Armstrong blah blah, f*ck you, yeah that little dickball is raising money to spend on a charity, go suck a cock lady.
yeah he would have lost his fucking shirt, kid is a dweeb, have fun when FB stock trade at $10, its not the next Google IDIOTS!
i do hate that has has 10k sitting around though
ahahahahahah, he bought stock in Apple when he was 5!!! That line says all I need to know about this story. FUCKING BULLSHIT, his mother is so bored being a stay at home mom while the husband bangs his hot secretary all night, so she makes this little ploy.
First off, I feel like you should have to be 18 to trade stocks, its technically like gambling.
Second, as someone already said the stock is doing shitty, so if anything he (I mean his mom) should be thanking her lucky stars that the sale might not have gone through.
This kid will absolutely grow up to be a total shithead, he will have no idea how to communicate with others or share with other kids, he’s clearly in his own silver spoon bubble. He doesnt know what a black person looks like other than Obama and LeBron, how it feels to have the wind knocked out of you when a soccerball slams into your gut at 80 miles an hour
What’s it like to have 10,000 gs in the bank? Guess he can’t watch it get anally raped by bills.
yo, this is literally the average kid in a place like scarsdale where im from. straight disgraceful. overachievers are worse than hobos in my opinion. they think they’re so holier than thou. i’m not sure i believe in god, but I KNOW THESE FUCKERS ARE ROTTING IN HELL.
Everyone who bought fb stock long as soon as it went public is a fucking moron who has no business trading stocks and doesn’t understand the first thing about it. Wish my dad gave me a 10k allowance when I was 10 to piss away on skateboards and shit stocks.
Unless, he was was shorting that shit, not sure that he lost anything. NASDAQ did him a favor via that glitch.
A) How do you not make a reference to Napolean Dynamite with the door-to-door bracelet selling?
B) Kid’s lucky the order didn’t go through. Worst investment ever. That shit won’t be over $20/share in a year.
Not to mention this kid is a fucking moron, stock is barely at $32 now…who would own a fucking stock with ZERO paid subscribers at $30+ a share??? Fuck this kid.
Fuck this kid right in his mouth. Calling a door to door bracelet salesman a company now?
and claiming that his door to door bracelet sales created 10,000$ in revenue… how many fucking bracelets would you have to sell if you made even 10$ in profit on each ?(which you never could)
That would be 1,000 bracelets this little idiot made and sold at 10 net a pop…. total utter bullshit, father must be a lawyer with those claims
And people still get angry when jews get stereotyped. Just another reminder of why there was a holocaust
hey junior, right now your $10K investment would be worth $7277. Guess your mommy should stick to sleeping with the pool boy and not trying to let a 11yo invest. Also if i remember correctly back in the day some kid was trading and made a killing. He was under 21 (or 18) and they said sorry you cant trade stock. couldn’t cash out or anything.
As for football, sure bro. Being the kid who give the ref’s the ball when it goes out of bound is not playing football
Trid3ent, while I technically agree with you, your comment is retarded. Google has zero paid subscribers and their stock is at $604. Unlike Facebook, they actually know what they’re doing and have different products and revenue streams. For the life of me I don’t know what this silly Jew is complaining about…get your money back and buy more shares at the lower current price. Or better yet, buy something else
Google has many paid services (Android, Google Checkout, Google TV, business apps like their translation, analytics, and map services, to name a few … plus all the ad revenue). Facebook only has ad revenue.
welcome to the real world kid. you’re just a goldfish in a shark tank. you money is all gone. grow a pair and move on.
@JW92 Facebook could give a shit about ad revenue. ALL their money is in their data and personal info they have.
This kid has started his own business, owns stocks in apple and is trying to throw 10k on Facebook stocks? I get pissed at 7 dollar Jameson shots. Levi Aron, where the fuck you at??
FB down another 6% since this blog was posted. I pray to God that this kid’s sale DID go through just so he can be exposed for the fraud he is. I hope he bought it at 40 bucks. It’s tailing into 31 right now. Your 10K just became $7800…better sit back on that six year old Apple stock (which someone already pointed out is a bullshit story).
@gourmet There are many companies with no subscribers that do very well. Comparing Google to FB is just silly. Might as well have picked General Electric or something. The point is that their valuation is based on the value of that personal data. IF they sell that data, the users drop by 50% overnight. And they have nothing to fall back on with subscription dollars. That’s my only point. Oh and go fuck yourself.
i cant believe there are this many people that thought facebook would be a good investment right now.
Shut up people he is a smart ass kid so be nice to him.
Funniest thing is, his order will probable get filled. At$40 or some shit. Enjoy shitbrick. Bunk out.
