[quote=Anonymous]For my options, I get offered a chunk (1,000 or more) at the price the stock is trading at the day I earn the options, but they are not exerciseable until the future (usually 1-3 years out, but expire at 10 years). If the stock was 50 when you were given the option and 60 when you go to exercise in a cashless exercise, then you sell the stock to a broker and walk away with just under $10 per share and owe income tax. If you have the funds to buy and hold the shares from the company at the option price, then you can buy the shares at a future date for a lower price and then your ultimate profit is taxed at capital gains.[/quote]
