<To tell you the truth I've wondered for years why regular shareholders put up with the dilution by stock options.
I didn't realize no one else cared until they lost all their money.>

In addition to diluting and overstating earnings, options grants create a perverse incentive to the top management to tank the stock to get their option grants at lower price points.

No matter how you look at options, they are a scheme designed to separate suckers from their hard earned cash.
