IPOll: if you're a Facebook employee with stock option(s), how soon after the IPO do you cash them bitches in? - encyclopedia pixie Feb 1, 19:58 26
- 180 days = SEC wait period - hellokitty Feb 1, 21:10 1
  - Hello, Kitty. -- nm - Qale Feb 1, 21:47
- IIRC, they can't do anything with them for six months (stock options can be a time bomb as some found out) - zeitgeist Feb 1, 20:53
- You cash in enough to be filthy rich and keep the rest in case Facebook goes all Apple. -- nm - Mop Feb 1, 20:36
- It's not a fair question. Facebook is likely to be wildly successful, and should continue to grow top and bottom line. But the answer to your question - rollo Feb 1, 20:20
- I let them pop first on the initial hype, then sell. Maybe buy some back on the dip. -- nm - budice Feb 1, 20:17
- I don't think I would any time soonish. I think Facebook is the real deal. -- nm - Qale Feb 1, 20:00 16
  - it's the RARE dotcom that's worth it. -- nm - loosi Feb 1, 20:10
  - Facebook is a naturally-evolved AOL closed environment that has huge subscriber buy-in. And it's free. - Beryllium Feb 1, 20:07 13
    - I did say not anytime soonish, which would fit in your equally vague concept of it 'going the way of AOL'. -- nm - Qale Feb 1, 20:24 2
      - Indeed, I wasn't disagreeing :) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 1, 20:39 1
        
        I think while comparable to AOL, Facebook seems to have far more all encompassing reach. While AOL was dominate, the internet wasn't as "necessary". -- nm - Qale Feb 1, 20:44
    - so it has really limited opportunity for revenue streams currently. I think it's not a great buy. I wouldn't invest besides to play the players. -- nm - amanda jones Feb 1, 20:11 9
      - Google's primary revenue stream is still advertising. Facebook has tens or hundreds of captive people to advertise to. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 1, 20:39 1
        
        I forgot the word millions. - Beryllium Feb 1, 20:40
      - My concern as stock holders look for profits you have the possibility to change the site too much and poison it for people. - Bacon Feb 1, 20:14 3
        
        Netflix has already recovered from their screwup -- nm - encyclopedia pixie Feb 1, 20:15 2
        
        I admit they pissed me off and I quit for about 4 months? 5 months? Now we are signed up for streaming. - Bacon Feb 1, 20:22 1
        
        HAHA! -- nm - Nelson Feb 1, 20:34
      - the revenue is the thing. 12% is Zynga supposably - encyclopedia pixie Feb 1, 20:12 2
        
        I know. I feel very soft on it. I just don't trust the long-term value. -- nm - amanda jones Feb 1, 20:18
        
        so I am going to name drop again. The CFO of Zynga is a dude I knew from college. that bastard is bathing in champagne right now. - loosi Feb 1, 20:13
  - This. -- nm - Dr. Vermin Feb 1, 20:04
- asap as well. cha-ching! -- nm - Tim Feb 1, 19:59 1
  - it's 180 days, apparently. the problem is when everyone else gets the same idea, the stock price takes a beating -- nm - encyclopedia pixie Feb 1, 20:00
- my friend jenny is starting a job at FB monday. hope she got options. -- nm - amanda jones Feb 1, 19:58
one man didn't buy a winning ticket for the $950 million "El Gordo" lottery like everyone else in the village did -- (link) - encyclopedia pixie Feb 1, 19:46 6

    - shit. me too. nm - Dignan Feb 1, 20:06
    - it's been making me smile all week -- nm - encyclopedia pixie Feb 1, 20:02
- Aunt Jemima Butter Lite. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 1, 19:46 2
  - Word..minus the Lite -- nm - budice Feb 1, 19:50 1
    - if you're gonna be a pig, go all the way, is what I say. -- nm - loosi Feb 1, 19:51
- A nice big dollop of butter, and syrup. When I eat out, I can also have them with berries and whip cream. -- nm - Bacon Feb 1, 19:46
Oh, come on. After seeing Crocodile Dundee 3 some of you wished he would die right? -- nm - Bacon Feb 1, 19:44 4
- WTF? there was a *third* one??? - i'm not dead yet !!! Feb 1, 20:46 3
  - This is hilarious. I guess on January 17th 2011 I didn't know there was a Croc 3 either. -- (link) - Bacon Feb 1, 20:50 [Backboard] 1
    - What a difference a year makes. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 1, 20:50
  - Like Cappy, Dundee went to L.A. -- (link) - Bacon Feb 1, 20:48
I tried eharmony and damn, they gave me a bunch of lemons. Whatever their "formula" is, it didn't work on me. All I got were dudes who couldn't - loosi Feb 1, 19:44 45
- I met Mrs Disney on eHarmony. I dated people from a bunch of different sites....eHarmony was the best.... - Walt_Disney Feb 1, 20:08
- that's exactly what it is, formulaic. - znufrii Feb 1, 19:52 12
  - I have only found a "true connection" with men I met in art studios. Truth. -- nm - loosi Feb 1, 19:54 11
    - I'd believe it. -- nm - znufrii Feb 1, 19:55 10
      - Her dream guy is a Fireman, part time brewer, hobbies include being in a Hanson cover band and painting nudes while in the nude. -- nm - Bacon Feb 1, 19:56 8
        
        My *actual* fantasy is a guy who loves things I never thought of. - loosi Feb 1, 19:58 7
        
        *nods* -- nm - znufrii Feb 1, 20:09
        
        Yeah, I am dating someone I probably never would have imagined being with. - Bacon Feb 1, 20:02 5
        
        awesome! that is what I am looking for. something new. I don't want someone like me. I've seen that. how boring. -- nm - loosi Feb 1, 20:03 4

    - But didn't they ask you, up front, if you were interested in marriage? I always heard (maybe incorrectly) that if you didn't say "yes" to that, you - mara Feb 1, 19:53 7
      - not the ones I talked to. not once. -- nm - loosi Feb 1, 19:55 3
