I'd have 480k$ in stock with current 145$/unit? F#@$
If I joined amazon 12 years and not joined Msft, then F#@$.....
If only I invested $100 into BTC 9 years ago.
If I join Lyft 6 years ago, my TC would be 2M/year for SDE II
Well, I didn't receive an offer from Lyft 6 years ago... nor I had an offer from facebook in 2004 or google in 1999
Got it, sorry I missed that context. Probably add that bit of information more explicitly in your post?
OP how does your math work ? Doesn't it work out to be ( (80k / 45) * 3) * 145 = 773k ?
You are right. I did over 2years... my offer was 2.5 years ago
What about taxes
Ideally you get a no of stocks equivalent to offered grant. Doesn't matter after 4 years stocks get high or low. What is yours is yours. Your options are to keep them all keep trading at vesting periods.
I'm confused, doesn't it work this way? ( (80k / 45) * 3) * 145 = 773k ?
Let's say my offer letter says. 200k stocks over 4 years. During my first month I will be granted 200 stocks (considering price of 1 stock is $1k). If after 4 years stocks prices get high and now value 2k per stock then you have 200 * $2k = $400k
Damn. I want some stock. All I get is 401K contributions.
You are in the ball park of 400k 😃
Don’t assume that. When I was at Microsoft and the stock rose 50% from $40 to $60 I saw it as a huge gain so I sold. I also sold at 80, 90 110, 115. I am still holding on some Those who bought bitcoin at $10 probably sold at $20 when their money doubled.
Welcome to the bull market of the last ten years? MSFT finally joined the fun.
Yes, I want a f@#$ crash to happen so I can jump in the dance floor fresh ;-)
Unfortunately that's not how it works. Besides amex is up from 12 to 120 in the same time period so you are crushing it!
Microsoft gives $80k stock/year? Damn, where do I sign up?!
This. Tell us OP.
