The company was being sued for 7 figures and I made sure that didn't happen (I'm not a lawyer). They gave me around $250k in stock as a bonus. I was being groomed to run the company once the owner retired. It's just a case of being in the right place, along with some dread game on the owner. He knew I could leave and start a company of my own.

I found myself in a similar situation, but although I made mad loot for the people I was working for, somehow that always got forgotten. I at least increased the biz by 25%. I could have done more, but after my ideas never got me even a salary, I though pass, move on.
Any ideas how to avoid that in the future? work for better people? get things in writing before opening my damn mouth?
Damn, I feel stupid just thinking how much I gave these people.
