Their pre order ipo is wanting and planning on like $31 to $34 a share. I'm thinking no.

Stocks are basically a percentage of ownership. The share price as a dollar amount is meaningless because it could be 1% of a company or 0.000000001%. The relevant number here is that Reddit is IPOing at a valuation of $5 billion (that stock buys a ¹⁄₁₅₀₀₀₀₀₀₀ interest), which all I can reply with is hahahahahahahaha

Well, either two values give the third. All one's gotta know is two of: valuation, price per share, number of shares.
