tpt, don't deceive yourself. greed was at the root of this gentleman's problems. he received compensation in stock and could've sold for a HUGE windfall - you know, the ones that allow you to retire and fly planes.

but, he didn't.

why? did the mysterious amt monster put a gun to his head? no way.

he CHOSE to GAMBLE his FUTURE in order to GET MORE (rather than be THANKFUL for what he HAD) - a gamble he couldn't AFFORD to LOSE.

one can blame the amt all they want, but they are re-arranging chairs on the GREED TITANIC. GREED is the VILLIAN and EVERYONE needs to learn to be...

1. more THANKFUL for what they have.
2. more aware of the RISKS they take in life - ESPECIALLY HUGE RISK LIKE HOLDING HUGE DOLLARS WORTH OF STOCK RECEIVED AS COMPENSATION AND TAXED.
3. don't let a bad decision RUN so that it DESTROYS your financial future.
4. working for a living isn't bad. many people can't stand to work in tech, but they do what they need to do as responsible people.

i surely hope that there is some evidence that this man committed suicide. if not, then the reformamt group is swimming BENEATH pond scum to use this TRAGEDY to bolster their own continued GREEDY SELF INTEREST.
