Some minority shareholders said that their life savings were to purchase HSBC.

She had planned to collect more than 100,000 (about 20,000 per month) dividends with her husband every year to help her life after retirement. She did n’t expect to suspend the dividends without a letter, which is more like "I borrow money, I do n’t want to." Why do n’t you pay off, do n’t you? "
She believes that she is in a dilemma. If she sells the shares she holds, she will lose 40%. If she maintains the status quo, she will have to pay for her daily expenses. I ’m burying 20,000 mosquitoes every month? There are so many people in Hong Kong, and my family pushes them to a pit for burial! "
