It's also hilarious when you think about it. For almost all startup employees, a long enough time scale reveals that the real value of those stock options is exactly zero dollars.
This would have people paying taxes on fictional or purported wealth. As dumb as the tax code is, this isn't even reform.
- dallbee 7y agoMy understanding of the bill is that the tax would apply to the strike price value. $100,000 in strike price is quite a lot more than what your typical startup employee has, and that first $100,000 per year isn't even taxed. For this to apply to you, you'd have to be receiving a ton of options.
