The registration application to the SEC to create ‘shares’ of the bankruptcy (BK) trust will be filed today. As I understand it, this process will create ownership shares in the BK trust so that owners can buy and sell interest … the stated benefit being to create liquidity i.e. the ability to sell or cash out via a public market.
I’m baffled why this money is being spent from our/your bankruptcy trust by the managing trustee for this effort. Is liquidity over the next 24 months that big a benefit to justify all this cost of “taking the BK trust public?” How many buyers of these ‘shares’ will there be?
The stated time horizon for the trust is 20 some months not years.
I’ll try to find more concrete updates on the real estate sales – which is where the distributions will flow from.
Lessons Learned from the Woodbridge Scam 
I agree it sounds like a waste of our money with no real benefit. Just sell the properties and get our money back as efficiently as possible. All this other sounds like nonsense.

The time frame was 24 months … why make such a effort for something that is supposed to be buttoning up and done – right?

I thought we’d be farther along on these sales as well.

I don’t get it, why can’t they just get rid of these properties now, so we get less, better than nothing, that way we don’t have to pay Liquidation Trust and Employees, Lawyers, Contractors etc. By the time they sell, we will get absolutely $0 if things go as slow as it’s going now! What you think?

I see it your way …. its real estate, not a moon launch. List it, peddle it, pay us out of that.
Let’s not make a career out of this effort, right!

When folks are depending on assets from this liquidation plan, there should be some expediency to assure that we would have the ability to at least spend a bit of the distributions before we expire! It has been a long road. Does anyone have any update as to the percentage of return expected? It was varying between 42 to 65%. when first announced.

This is going much slower than I expected … if you have the last (U.S. Mail) update the trustee Goldberg sent, email him these questions.
I think he needs to hear from us.

i agree with you about this next chapter to sell on market another delay and more lawers hired. The longer this is delayed the more expense we have to share with others. Unless they can sell for a good profit we are the losers. Will we ever know what money is really available?

I’m not yet able to really figure out how much wealth was recovered from Shapiro either.
Contact Michael Goldberg if you have his email from the last update he sent late summer.
