Maybe useful for VCs who have a portfolio of companies and need to put stuff in their presentations to LPs.

If you’re an employee you can’t look at this like an investor would. Your risk profile is completely different. The write up is correct in that it’s basically a call option, correctly point out there is no market for it and then ignore the fact that zero liquidity means you can land a 747 between the bid and ask (if you get anyone to buy from you at all).

This a feel good number generator.



An employee can repeat jobs over and over. Assumption is an exit eventually occurs - same thing VCs feel as well.
