About this title

Synopsis

When you have completed the book, you will be able to: 1) identify and understand what type of employee stock and options you have, 2) determine when you should consider exercising your options, and 3) understand what strategies and actions you should employ for your options.

Additionally, you should be able to avoid making common errors like: 1) exercising the "wrong" type of option, or exercising at an inopportune time, 2) putting tax consequences in front of market conditions, and 3) not protecting your paper gains.

This book will enable you to intelligently discuss strategies involving your employee stock options with your investment advisor so that together, you can make the appropriate decisions.
