A grand…wow, you’re a player.
The way it will probably work is that VISA employees and such will be able to buy stock. It’s possible they could have a program for “friends and families” where someone who works for Visa can permit their friends to buy Visa stock. So you’d have to know or marry or whatever someone that works for Visa. Or go work for them yourself.
Be aware that Visa is going public in a year when the economy will tank so they’re about a year late and the IP may go poof.
