Elio Bonds For Sale?

[MooJuice]

Has elio considered selling bond notes? Something like 5 or 10 yrs with some sort of reasonable interest rate? I'd buy one, I ain't gettin nothin for my money in the bank anyways, inflation seems to be going up faster than the interest on my savings in the bank.. I would think they wouldn't have to worry as much about shareholders or investors messing with the plan if it was just bonds..

I think this is a good idea! On the Elio web page there is a "Find Us" tab. In the tab there is a contact button. Here is the link: tellmemore@eliomotors.com

It may be worth presenting your idea to the Elio group.

It's a great idea , but total transparency is needed . You can't sell bonds or shares in a company without full disclosure . Heretofore , Elio has played it close to the vest and I'm not sure they would change enough to meet FTC regulations . But on a positive note , the interest on Elio "Junk" bonds would pay a ridiculous dividend . I'm in .

I would consider buying some ELIO bonds. I would take a lot to sell 240 million dollars worth. But if they could generate collector interest. Sell the bonds low enough where people would buy them as a gift or to hang on a wall. Heck someone once sold pet rocks.

MooJuice, Have you contacted Elio regarding your idea? If so, what was said?

I would purchase some with almost no interest just to get the product to market .

It's a wonderful idea. I know nothing about stocks and bonds but I know enough about Elio. I'm in. How much depends on MyTax Man who knows my troubles with the Big Brother. Hubby just mentioned last night he bets we will be audited again, so things must be tight.

Before Obama changed all the rules Bond holders were some what protected in bankruptcy filings. With GM he kind of tossed a lot of that out. This is important because that was a main attraction to buying bonds. If ELIO were to offer bonds they would like only be sold to the curious or committed.
You would like be risking it all. GM kept a lot of cash that should have gone to bond holders and gave it to themselves.
Some might see ELIO offering bonds as some sort of recover our cash and run scam. I personally would buy some on the outside chance ELIo makes it.

$1,000.00 Elio Bond w/5 year maturity @ 6% yields = $1,300.00 or $1,500.00 towards
the purchase of a 2021 Elio!

Wonderful idea. If we can't pay for our vehicles up front, then we could buy bonds. I am sure this would help Elio realize OUR DREAM.
