If they've netted that much, that means they've sold. As such, there's a good chance they've retired, or at least only work on their own side projects now. Not everyone sells a company and then starts another one.

The number of people who have sold more than $100M in options (as opposed to founders' stock) is likely quite small, no? The poll is now up to 38.
