At one point in time, Zynga had a good price. I was scared to accept their stock as compensation at that time, and I'm relieved about not pursuing it now. With Amazon, I actually daydream about the stock taking a nose dive right before I get my next compensation offer. That way I get more stock. I have never had to worry about the long term future value of the company, so a dip is an arbitrage opportunity, as opposed to a risk (like Zynga).
