For better or worse, I think most of us have made peace with the fact that capital holders can put their money at risk, wait several years, and earn a large return with some probability. For some guy to waltz in a couple months before an IPO and make $35m out of thin air... it's a bit much. Especially when many of us have seen how hard early employees work, staying til late hours and thinking someone will compensate them for their extra effort.
