I'd have bought a few shares but they wanted my real info. The whole thing just felt like a scam to collect PPI.

Eh, I bought 100 shares.

I figured:

a) I have the money.
b) I don't get IPO offers that often.
c) Buy what you hate.

Once I have the shares at $34, I'll put in an order to sell at $69. Nice!
