it’s pretty crazy hold a lot of stock at a company you work at. Especially given the fact that people are getting laid off. Getting laid off and having a huge price drop in the stock is a double whammy.
Investing $10,000 in Wells Fargo stock (WFC) on January 3, 2000, would have purchased approximately 695.65 shares at the adjusted closing price of $14.38 per share. 
As of March 7, 2025, with WFC trading at $71.05 per share, these shares would be worth approximately $49,406.
In contrast, a $10,000 investment in the Vanguard 500 Index Fund (VFINX) on January 3, 2000, would have grown to approximately $65,000 by March 7, 2025, assuming dividends were reinvested.
Therefore, over this 25-year period, the investment in the Vanguard 500 Index Fund would have outperformed the investment in Wells Fargo stock.
