21. Cheney has 433,000 shares
From CNN Money:

"The report says that the deferred compensation that Cheney receives from Halliburton as well as the more than 433,000 stock options he possesses "is considered among the 'ties' retained in or 'linkages to former employers' that may 'represent a continuing financial interest' in those employers which makes them potential conflicts of interest."

Let's do some simple math, shall we? On Sept. 25, 2002, shares of Halliburton were 13.00. Today they're worth 24.72 (as of this writing). So, a year ago, his options were worth roughly $5,629,000. Today they're worth roughly $10,703,000. That's over a 100% increase in value.

Not bad, Dick. Not bad.
