Mark, you need to get a real job. Being a momentum trader anymore just
won't cut it.<<

Why is the market going to close up shop?

Make the case of Margaret Whitman, the eBay Inc. president. Did her slew
of 1998 stock options transform her into an Internet billionaire or not? One
executive-search firm values her package at nearly $1.2 billion on paper.
But the Web auctioneer itself reported that exercising the options
produced a more modest gain: $42.7 million.

Who's right all depends on how you count options -- and when. A debate
is raging over how to assess the cornucopia of options commonly doled out
by Internet companies. In this young, highly volatile industry, traditional
valuation models seem pointless.<<
