> I expect 90% of individuals with stock options to sell as they can. If I have a choice between selling at $20 now and getting, say, $200,000 or waiting some unspecified time and possibly getting more (or nothing), I'm going for the sure money every time. Even for someone whose pay is in the low six figures, option money like this can mean paying for your kids' college education or starting your own business. The only ones who might hold on would be those who don't have many shares/options (I'm thinking less than 2,000). I think there's still a lot of energy/optimism at Facebook inside its own Reality Distortion Field. Even if Facebook doesn't recoup its value for years, there's still a lot of money to be bad. Remember that not everyone makes the same decisions you do.
