    Imagine a world where stock grants were a standard part of all employment contracts, not just for tech workers and the like.

      Stock grants for tech workers are often not worth much unless they get in super early and they get lucky.

      I got more from my accrued vacation time than I got from my stock options at the last three jobs I left.
