They did this strategy with stock, maybe they still do. You got a random share that could potentially be Microsoft or Apple or what not and you could earn more via successful referrals. I ended up getting some random pharmaceutical company whose name eludes me but it hovered around $5 the entire time I had it. I think it peaked at 8-9 once even, it was quite exciting for a neophyte like I was then.
