You usually can't hold on to options for longer than three months after you leave a company, right? You'd have had to exercise them.

  Depends on the company, but this is the status quo in most. Some startups (including ours) now offer 10 years exercise period, but it's not common.

  Right. What I should have said was “should have hung onto the stock that I got from exercising the employee stock options”.
