Not a good idea to take stock as payment when it's about to plummet anyway.

- incomethax 18y agoUnless you know that it's inherently valuable... oh wait most of it is worth less than it was after the dot-com bubble burst
- mattmaroon 18y agoDoesn't really matter. For one, you have no way to predict whether or not it's about to plumment. And for another, you can (and, as a general rule, should) hedge any time you get stock from an acquisition, options, etc. Just buy a bunch of puts and you're covered in the event of a down slide.
