hah well I guess I'd better read them!

I guess I am numb to a degree though. My family members are doing to me what I know must happen to every google employee, every day. Its annoying. I have been emailed many of those "insider selling" articles. Makes you not want to disclose what you are invested in, to your family.

If I were invested in oil I wouldn't hear a peep from them. They know I live in SV and tech is what I know. But they are all tech shy now, and are trying to "save me a bundle".

No one needs to sell 15% or even 20% to "diversify". Does Warren Buffett diversify by selling BRK.A?

They made a mistake to file this plan as shares rather than dollars. They could have hit the dollar target with 2/3 or 1/2 as many shares. And it would have shown more than a hint that they expected higher value and higher prices than $85.

All they had to be sure of was that it wouldn't be a toxic or death spiral series of sales.

Can 10b5-1 plans be in dollars?
