I had shares in my companies stock plan at $150 and continued to participate right down to $18... it rose to nearly $60 when we were bought out, but overall I would have been better off selling each year the day of exercise and putting the money in a Vanguard index fund.

Of course I was too busy learning on the job and working to think about something so far off in the future. But I got to do interesting work I enjoyed, never screwed up anyone else's life and my health is still OK... at least that's something.
