Stock from a company?

Question

If you are an employee that is issues stock when it is at 1.50 a share and then 5 years later it is at 25.50 a share what does it mean for you if you've never taken away from it could you become a millionaire.

Answer 1

what does it mean for you? nothing (beside job grows and promotion), because if you didn't buy stock (of your company back then), then you don't have anything to earn or profit. But if you did, and didn't take your profit out but use it to buy more stock, then CONGRATULATION, you're rich. not sure that will make you a millionaire, but sure you have some money to spend.

Answer 2

Assuming the stock did not split during that time, the stock that was worth $150 when it was given to you would be worth $2,550 five years later if it selling for $25.50 a share.

That would not make you a millionaire.
