Youtube video of Cisco Engineer riding stock options up then down dotcom

My Google-fu is weak. There was a great video I remember seeing on the Youtube years ago about an engineer, (pretty sure working for Cisco,) who rode his stock options from not really even paying attention to generational wealth back to zero. I cannot find it. I thought it was a really good example of how hard it can be to do the rational thing when it comes to finance. Anyone know what I am talking about? I have searched and searched by I cannot find it.
Sounds more like Nortel or some other company than Cisco. Maybe Enron?

Response by poster: I believe it was 20 years ago, or at least an experience from the Dotcom era.

Response by poster: Looking at the Cisco stock chart the turn of millennium it looks about right. The video was essentially a verbal version of that spike.
