No stock, just deductible contributions.  Investing time and money in CAP can be rewarding though...

We are a 501 C-(3) non-profit Corporation, so I would not expect much financial return on the investment.....just the opposite actually!  :)

Does anyone else refer to lottery tickets as the "Innumeracy Tax"?

Lottery: (n) A tax on people that are bad at math.

Sort of what Jeff said, but he believes one should never use a large word when a diminutive word will do.

You can by CAP stock or sell it under the bridge.  The very same bridge that I purchased last year from a guy living in a van down by the river.

If we want to create the equivalent of a lottery or dividend paying stock, I suggest we cooperatively  take out term  life insurance policies on  CAP aviators, with the death  benefits payable to the individuals who contribute to the policy, and apportioned according to contributions.  If we limit the purchases to 10 year terms, and take our most elderly flyers, we can all make out like fat rats! A percentage of the benefits could be designated for the family, as a motivation for establishing the death pool ( Not to be confused with the Obama health plan) .....but maybe that would be inappropriate?
