Hi Aadje93,

1. Have you got sufficient monetary resources to buy the shares? If you do, do a clean re-install of the game, by not only uninstalling, but also deleting the 'Capitalism Lab' folder from "My Documents".
2. And secondly? You wrote you had 2 things to ask/ mention.

Hey, sorry little my mistake, i wasn't looking right, the CEO had all the shares (still need to learn the game a little ;) )

My second question was, if i let the CEO of a company do his job, and i have 100% share/set the dividend to like 80-100%. Does my parent company get all profit while the CEO of the daughter company still manages it? It's getting a pain to manage all the natural resources for my production chains, but i do want that moneyz!

Thanks :)

You can see that by going to the Corporations screen, by pressing C. There you'll see their profit and revenue. You will also see what happens in case if you lower or increase the dividend. Cheers!
