As the gate for upward mobility was on the verge of closing, he struggled to move forward. College, Silicon Valley, entrepreneurship; HP, Apple, Microsoft.

Chapter 194: Dividends

```

Everyone seated in the conference room held stock options in Byte Company.

For instance, executives like Jimmy and Joe held stock options that varied from 1% to 2%.

With a profit of 30 million dollars, they would receive a share ranging from 300,000 to 600,000 dollars if it were distributed according to the shareholding ratio.

Damn it! Factoring in their own salaries and various bonuses, Jimmy's annual income even reached 1 million dollars!

It was an astounding figure, one that most corporate executives in Silicon Valley couldn't even dream of earning.

Jimmy had worked an average of 60 to 80 hours per week throughout the year, and now his efforts had paid off; a million dollars was his due.

Of course, if we're talking about who got the most, it would certainly be the few directors present.

Marcus and David Fero now each held 5.6% of Byte Company's shares, and this time they could pocket a dividend of 1.68 million dollars each.
