NVIDIA Share Price Surge

A discussion about two NVIDIA investment success stories - Nancy Pelosi's recent trade and a former NVIDIA employee's potential equity value.
"In July 2022, Nancy Pelosi and her husband Paul decided to buy 25,000 shares of NVIDIA. They bought it at $165, and it's currently trading at $800. That's a 4.8x return for Nancy - pretty impressive.
When I first moved to San Francisco, I lived in this warehouse with 4 other guys. One of them worked at NVIDIA from around 2009 to 2014. I was doing the math - if he had $150,000 of equity given to him over 4 years, which seems reasonable at about 30-40k a year, if he didn't sell his net worth would be something like $35 million now. And he wasn't even an early employee - they already had thousands of people back then. Isn't that insane that someone could do that? NVIDIA has been insane."
