Assistant TO the regional manager!
Bro in 3 videos watching this guy I’ve learned more about business then all fake business gurus
How do they define the 10 million shares when the company was founded? Is it just a random number? Is the typically number?
Do I have to pay for the options per pay check ? Or will they just be given to me for “free”?
Hey @Slidebean, what are the most important things to know before considering an ESOP offer? For instance, Mr A has an ESOP option of 1% of a company that has raised half a million dollars in pre-seed funding, what all is important to know before considering this offer?
I have a question. As an example:
Let's say I own 90% of a company with 900,000 shares, and give my employees 100,000 stock options (which is the company's entire stock option pool). The company is valued at 1 million dollars.
This makes every share worth 1 dollar exactly each.
Now, in a next round, I issue 1,000,000 new shares, and the company doubles in value to a 2 million dollars valuation. In this case, what would happen? Is there some pre- and post- investment share price that the employees could use their right for? Otherwise, the share price would just go from 1 dollar per share to 1 dollar per share, even though the company has doubled in value (in other words: the company doubled in value, but their share of the company halved.
How is this usually done?
– Are employees usually given new stock options when issuing a large amount of new shares?
– Is this just a huge financial mismanagement of the company?
– Can the employees somehow "sell before the investment, and instantly buy new stock options after the investment"?
Nicely put
You should do one

3:50–4:00 – Sums up my sentiments. If the company doesn't increase in value then the stock options are worthless.
Great video and explanation.

I want to invest roughly $700,000 in stocks since I've heard that even in challenging times, investors may turn a profit. Any excellent ideas for stocks?.
