And generally, that conversion happens in three days or less.” - Mark Gottlieb  “Often when we're evaluating a controlling interest, we either will not take a discount for marketability, or take a rather modest discount when compared to what would have been used if a minority interest would have been calculated.” - Mark Gottlieb Resources Mentioned: Mark S.
