      Minors can legally own shares of a private company.

      I’m not saying THIS child does… and out of EVERYONE on the list that kid is entirely morally absolved anyways by virtue of being a little kid.

      But, they can own shares.

        Minors cannot sign contracts, so any ownership would be thru a trust or other legal apparatus.

        They’d have to write the name of the trust on the trophy

        Usually it’s under a special type of account where the parents are the legal owners until the kid turns 18.
