then he could be worth 300 mil within 5 years. Not at
all unlikely.

could you outline a series of events that could lead to this in a 5 year timespan? I am honestly curious, as it seems fairly unlikely to me although I am sure jason will be very successful.

he could take is annual bonus and invested in a up and coming company. lets say.. the next google or youtube etc. the said company goes public in 5 years and he'll could have %5 stake in a $100billion company. nuff said.

we're looking for scenarios that are "not unlikely", as I quoted in the post I was responding to. otherwise I like raptor's plan lol

Turnip,

There was an article entitled Hedge Clipping in a recent issue
of the New Yorker Magazine which describes some startling financial
successes in very little time. Check it out if you are interested.

When I said "not at all unlikely" that is not the same thing as saying
"likely". Anyway, its certainly possible, and certainly much more likely
than winning the powerball 5 times.

And if its only 150 million instead of 300....hey whos counting?

wait why can't anyone just invest in the next google and have a 10% share of a billion dollar company?
