JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

IIRC he was given stock options that didn't mature for 6 months or a year or whatever, and va linux stock tanked before that.

if he had cashed out the exact moment he was able to he would have ended up with a nice chunk of money (although way less than what he had on paper before that), but it had basically gone to zero something like a month after that
