Not to be that guy, but I think he makes 300k and was given 193m in stock options last year based on some whack evaluation.

Still an utterly insane number, hope they get crushed on the public market

He paid himself 193 mil because he knows its not going to be worth more than 1.93 mil after the IPO.

I've spent years watching IPOs, it's going to get pumped and then dump after a few months. Anyone shorting it after the first couple of weeks is going to lose their ass.

I can't wait to see how this plays out
