How To Make $128 Million From Google In 30 Days

It sounds unbelievable, but it's true! An executive search firm sold Google shares they bought less than 30 days ago for an amazing $128.8 million profit.

Heidrick & Struggles International announced it has exercised the warrants it held in Google, Inc. -- and monetized the resulting shares -- for net proceeds of $128.8 million. 55 percent of the net proceeds is payable to the consultants involved with the search.

The firm obtained warrants to purchase approximately 1.2 million shares of Class B common stock of Google at a price of $0.30 per share, which it received in 2001 in connection with recruitment fees.

I hope the people Google hired worked out!
