Somewhere between 170 and 225 is my guess. Still a lot of money but after taxes it's nowhere near retirement after 4 years. The stock could be worth something or nothing.. unless they are public or liquid I would discount that amount by 90%.
- coconutbrain 5y ago> You didn't say you were giving away a lottery ticket for open source You call this a lottery ticket? My open-source work is the reason they were considering me in the first place! Instead of getting opportunities, let them establish a monopoly over my time? No, thanks > after taxes it's nowhere near retirement after 4 years Correct, if you take the taxes into account there's more grind for what's worth Those stock options are effectively $0, but based on the company's crazy valuation, sure they might be calculated as that much
- Minor49er 5y agoThat salary is roughly $900,000, post-tax. If you couldn't retire off of that today, let alone use that money to live comfortably for a substantial amount of time, then I simply don't know what to tell you
