Yeah that’s what I was thinking in terms of share price. I would not be benefitting from any dividends etc as obviously I do not currently hold any shares but would have to option to purchase at £2.19 - The reason for this weird question and I know someone noted down below no one can possibly know (which I am completely aware of but just wanted to get individual opinions anyway) is that say for example from history even if things were to go well, I’m thinking the price would be around £2.50. That would mean for the £14,000 ish that would be going into this share scheme over the 3 years including this year I would make approximately £2,000. I just feel this could be better used elsewhere for a £2,000 gain over the 3 years or so and like you pointed out any sale of the Thailand business could reduce the price as well. Taking all that into account I’d rather the £400 coming into my bank account every month than being saved separately if it looks likely the benefit isn’t going to be that much at the end of the 3 years .
I know this is an individual decision but kind of wanted opinions anyway so thank you @baker for your comment.
