PB, Re: Good for him. Now anybody that strenuously objects to having stock options as part of their compensation have some place
to work.
Also, anybody who strenuously objects to investing in companies that grant SOP's have the alternative of buying a few
shares of Berkshire.
Stock options, a given, no brainer bennie nowadays in high tech:
I don't know what it's like in the Silicon Forest, but in Silicon Valley, younger engineers not only seek out companies that offer stock options, but also Pre-IPO companies. Obviously, if you hit the right Pre-IPO company nowadays, and stay there for 5 years or so, you can be rich at 30 or less. Any high tech company NOT offering stock options today is way, way behind the 8-ball. I know the method of accounting for paying for stock option shares by companies is also the issue, but it seems the concept itself is in question? No way Jose.
