RSUs should be a lot more reality based, these are not options to purchase on a hypothetical future liquidity event, they're restricted stock that turns into real shares on public markets upon vesting.
- gigatexal 7y agoAhh I was thinking they were options. Never mind. Does one still pay taxes every year on the RSUs should they rise in paper valuation before vesting?
- awinder 7y agoYeah kinda, you pay taxes on the market value of shares when they vest (become unrestricted). But only on the shares that have become unrestricted, not your still-restricted shares.
