This is a common enough situation that there are companies that will loan you the money to help pay for options and deal with tax liability, using the shares as collateral. I haven’t used one myself and am not a lawyer or financial advisor.

As callous as it sounds, I don’t think doing things for “any improvement” means it is worth doing. Everything has a cost/benefit ratio. Are you going to wear a mask for the rest of your life in public and private (your household matter
