Doesn’t matter for taxes on wages, options, realized gains, distributions, et cetera.
- phlakaton 2mo agoMaybe wages if the company puts the IPO proceeds towards additional hiring. The other bits sound pretty speculative to me. I could see outside investors walking away with most of the early gains, leaving employees and locals underwater.

If they aren’t getting taxed, they aren’t hitting housing. (There are edge cases. But this isn’t an edge-case hypothesis. The folks selling shares in the private markets to buy mansions are paying taxes.)
