I've been trying to understand stock options for months. Hours of conversations and explanations, and I finally get it from a 6 min video.
THANK YOU

[NicholasBall]

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?.

[georgekariuki]

This is the insider information we need to build actual businesses that are attractive to great staff and investors.
Keep up great job Caya!

Very well organized. Presented with the right speed and clarity. Taught me a lot. Keep it up!

[Petar_star]

Our startup has just received the 1st round of funding. Thanks for making these videos, you clarified many things for us.

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’m so happy I made productive decisions about my finances that changed my life forever. I’m a single mother living in Vancouver Canada, bought my second house in September and hoping to retire next year at 50 if things keep going smoothly for me

I honestly think you guys are doing the best kind of marketing. This channel actually provides content that people care about and show how slidebean can help them. Unlike how majority of companies spam you with annoying fake-looking YouTube ads. Keep up the good work!

[ryanclavette]

Assistant *TO* the regional manager. Great vid!

[Golipillas]

Man can't thank you enough for this summary.

[jairambriz]

Bro in 3 videos watching this guy I’ve learned more about business then all fake business gurus

[jacobsheets]

Great content, easy to understand, and great editing skills! 👏🏼👏🏼

[manuc]

Very well done! I have been watching lots of videos about stock-based compensation, but any of them taught as clear as this one.

[snazzy]

Seriously thank you. I've read a few articles & talked to multiple people in my accelerator about this and was still a bit confused. Appreciate the video

[samho]

it would be great if you can make a video to show how you came up with your company valuation!
thanks a bunch, loving your videos

[sreekarpradyumna]

I felt so dumb before this video. I received ESOPs and I had no idea what they were. I was just like "Thanks... I guess?" in the meeting. 😶 I think I vaguely understand it now.

[RifatErdemSahin]

Vesting 1 to 4 years and the initial value divided into pointa makes sense. Value defined by one person and give the option to buy and pay the diff makes sense

[rs]

What if the employee just leaves in a few years and the company is never sold? Do you still make something of the stock options?

[vishalmoktan]

I like your videos but sometimes its difficult to understand, as many things you say are pretty new to me... Now since i had watch almost 5-6 videos of ur's am getting use to your talking and i understand much better now. Stay safe and keep uplaoding
