<Why are they willing to tie up their entire net worth BEFORE they can sell any shares?> You just answered the question no? <Are they crazy to take that risk in the first place, or just crazy if they don't cash out at the earliest possible moment?> I'm not making the judgement, the insiders are. I'm sure if the entrepeneur in question could have just been given $100 mill for his idea, he wouldn't have bothered going through all the hastle of going public... so no they weren't crazy to begin with, they had nothing, now they have millions, what's the point?
