Own the Melbourne storm (Shares)

It's sounding similar to the Green Bay Packers' model - no significant voting rights, shares not on the ASX (possibly not transferable) and no dividend if the club does make a profit. On the other hand, you get better access to the team and some more perks like best available seating and some voting rights on logo/strip changes.
Basically you have as much power as a shareholder in any large company (i.e. not much). You don't get dividends but the money does help the club and you get some perks and your name in lights. Probably fair value for the money if you're a keen supporter and have cash to splash.
We must all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately
Not being miserable but my $500 membership plus my sons on top of that goes to help the club. Now if only I could actually get to every game...
