Stock from a startup, I worked at SpaceX and any engineer that got in before 2010 and worked for at least 5 years (the standard vesting period for the stock) and didn't cash out their stock is worth north of $1 million by now easily, hell I met a technician who started in 2006 and that guy got his stock when it was worth pennies. Dude is worth several millions but works just for fun. Same with Tesla. The hours are haram though, expect to work 60hr work weeks on average.

How is this profitable though, you have to sell the patent to someone.
