This is exactly what I was looking for, great video. Most "exercise options early" videos were all about like call options on Robinhood 😂 I am on my 5th startup now but first time as an executive and my FMV is well under $0.01 so hoping to exercise them early at that rate and file a 53(b). My last company was bought by Cisco and I got smashed by taxes when it happened.
You need to be more clear on what the company was giving you : the company is not giving you SHARES, they are giving you the right to buy shares "AT A SPECIFIC SET PRICE THAT WILL NOT GO UP OVER TIME" jsut add that and it will be PERFECT! 🙂
@@LeDammm My point was actually about "At a specific Price, that will not increase" That's the part you left out, I know you understood the part that you said.
Le You are so beautiful 😍 its hard to follow the topic being discussed, i pay more to your face expression than what i should be to what is taught.(i am a terrible student) i am interested in your statement about "not an official stock holder"until I actually vest into the stock"Q? What about ownership of a S-Corp? My taxes are a mess...help?😢

They were giving me the right to buy shares, yes. Thank you for pointing that out.
