Par value

Read a random definition: Restriction

A quick definition of Par value:

Par value is the value of a bond or stock that is written on the certificate. It's like the price tag on a toy. The par value of a bond is important because it affects how much money you get back when the bond matures and how much you get paid in interest. Most bonds have a par value of $1,000 or $100.

A more thorough explanation:

Par value, also known as nominal value, is the stated face value of a bond or stock. It is the value that is printed on the bond or stock certificate and is usually set by the company issuing the security.

The par value of a bond is important because it determines the maturity value and the amount of coupon payments. For example, if a bond has a par value of $1,000 and a coupon rate of 5%, the bondholder will receive $50 in interest payments each year until the bond matures.

Similarly, the par value of a stock is important because it determines the minimum price at which the stock can be sold. For example, if a company issues 1,000 shares of stock with a par value of $1, the total par value of the stock is $1,000. If an investor wants to buy one share of the stock, they cannot pay less than $1 for it.

Overall, par value is an important concept in finance because it helps investors understand the value of the securities they are buying and selling.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people
i am not that sympathetic to him

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.
