I had some stock options that I received as compensation for serving on the advisory board of a start up. I exercised them a couple of years ago. It was a pretty small investment, but the company has attracted $75M in series C investment since then. The start up still isn't generating any revenue, but the paper increase in the stock value would win this thread by a large margin. The chances are this will be a boom or bust investment: it will either grow significantly more than what it has so far or it will be worthless in a few years.
