Nice. So how much will you be worth tomorrow?

  If the price on the private market is anything to go by, $6 times several tens of thousands of stock units, minus the astronomical cost to exercise, minus confusing Trump taxes. Oops, I just said the T-word! Better stop thinking about the news again! Ha ha!

    Congrats! You've won the options lottery. I'm going to watch the stock and maybe pick up a few shares later in the week.

      I mean, what's your reason for optimism? The private market price has been $1-$2 below the option strike price for a few years now. Most employees who received options as part of their comp for the last five years or so would have been underwater if they exercised them. The company even started compensating in RSUs, despite many years of opposition to them.

        Well, I said "maybe." I have to watch it. I am not entirely optimistic, but am a bit of a gambler. The last direct listing I bought (Slack aka WORK) went badly.
