Salary is gain paid for with labor, and it is taxed. I'm not sure I follow your point.
- bsbechtel 10y agoYes, salary is paid for with labor, but a reduced rate that is offset with compensation in the form of stock options. You're correct that it is taxed, and the capital gains rate is lower than the salary tax rate. My comment was more an observation, but the thought hadn't been fully fleshed out.
