Outside the tech bubble the vast majority of people don't have the cash flow to do this

  And such people are being compensated in mostly stock as an alternative?

    No? They're spending their income on housing, food, education, and healthcare. People don't have the capacity to put their cash into savings, let alone investments.

      Exactly, I don't understand your comment 'some people don't have so much compensation' in response to discussion on the cash/stock split and whether it matters? I don't disagree with you, it's just.. not relevant? Obviously if your compensation is too low to invest anything, you need it all in cash. It will be anyway. My suggestion was that cash is king as it's flexible anyway, so that's not even incompatible.
