And how rich are those employees, because of their stock vesting, compared to current ones, getting paid mere salary? ;)

They were getting paid around $20K a year (ref folklore.org) at a time when that wasn't exactly munificent. I'm not even sure they had stock grants either, just promises of greatness from Steve. Idiots.

We all have our weaknesses. I'd rather have contempt for the manipulators than the manipulated.

I apologize if it came off as contempt for the manipulated. I meant it more as sadness for them. St. Steve on the other hand...

Why do you think current employees don't get stock?
