VIDEO: Why plan for taxes on startup equity and startup stock options? From the Secret Keys of Startup Equity Series

Joining a startup? Here’s why startup hires plan for taxes on their startup stock options, restricted stock and RSUs. It’s not just “blah, blah, blah,” I promise.

If you're reading my blog and I'm talking about taxes for startup equity, I can understand that you might be thinking "blah, blah, blah, blah blah." Here's why it matters :)

Startup hires, even very sophisticated people, can miss out on the upside of joining a startup if they lose track the big picture themes of startup equity. This series - The Secret Keys of Startup Equity - is designed to outline the basic principles of startup equity to help you see the big picture and not get lost in all the fine print details of startup restricted stock, startup stock option and startup RSUs. You can consider this sort of the secret key to my blogs and my courses. If want to watch the whole series as one video, it’s here for your viewing pleasure.
