The spoiled part is saying that it's unattractive due to limiting upside, without appreciating that it limits downside too.

Most who got RSUs over the last two years lost big, and I bet they regret having a variable comp component now. Choosing RSUs over cash was a horrible choice for most in recent years

Hopefully GenZ/Millenials are learning the important lesson about fair value and fundamentals

Sure, and those who got RSUs over the last decade gained big. So what. Obviously stocks go up and down.

You sound pretty smart and well versed in the stonk investing.

Going to be great to see many of the 80%ers in tech have to face reality when the recession comes next year... hope you're a 20%er.

To be clear, Tech employees have been grossly overpaid the past decade (including myself). That reality is ending soon... get used to it

Stonk investing? Lol. Given that you’re just rambling at this point I think we’re done here. Good luck.

Grossly overpaid? What are you basing that on? Every company that is paying big bucks is generating revenue that is 5x+ the cost of the employee.

Many tech employees are underpaid, if anything.

It seems your bitterness is clouding your ability to have a constructive discussion here.
