    Mel could really lower his cost basis down here...

    What is Mel's average cost basis on his SIRI shares?

    I see that now if they were bought for tax liability they say just buy, an Mels purchase says Privite buy... Thanks for the correction

    Sworntwofun... those weren't regular purchases -- those were purchase/sales of vesting share grants to pay for the tax liability on those vesting shares.

    The documentation can be a bit misleading.

    I imagine he could better use his own money to pay off the debt, rather than buy stock.

    How much is he worth anyways?
