Executive Equity Compensation
What to do?
If you have earned a stake in your company, your compensation and taxes are more complicated than earning a salary, bonus or commissions. Isn't it funny, that even when something positive like earning more compensation occurs, it's not all unicorns and glitter. Being eligible for executive equity compensation is a very good thing and especially when our clients' understand how to make great decisions.
There are many choices, such as, when to sell and why, how to prepare for the tax surprises and understand the potentional risks associated with too much of a good thing. There is a whole new language to learn, stock options, incentive or non-qualified, ESPP-Employee Stock Purchase Program, Restricted Stock or RSUs- Restricted Stock Units, PSUs-Performance Stock Units, why there are even GSUs if you work for a certain mega large cap on the West Coast! Deferred Compensation, Phantom Shares, Tracking Shares. Valuations, excise price, grant dates, grant price, vesting schedules, sell to cover, under water shates and of course, the need to now pay quarterly estimated taxes.
With opportunty comes the responsibiity to be a good steward of your good fortune. Let us help you navigate the complexity so all your hard work really pays off.
Radically Rational Wealth Management
We invite you to explore our time-tested approach to proactive planning and disciplined, efficient investing: an approach so rational, it’s radical. At Journey, we act in your best interest — all day, every day. How is that different than the typical advisor? Just look at the math.
The Logic
If you had more time to do what is most important to you i.e. take care of your family, your health, important relationships, your professional life, your own growth, favorite activities and volunteering, or fill in the blank __________, while knowing that your finances and investments were optimally implemented, that would be good.
If you believe you are in optimal financial shape, how do you know? If you worry that you are not, what would you need to know to not worry?
If you are a do-it-yourselfer, that implies that you have the time, focus, tools, information, access and insight, discipline and lack of behavioral biases at all time to execute.
If you work with an advisor, first and foremost confirm they working in your best interest. If that hurdle is met, are you convinced that they have the time, focus, tools, information, access and insight, discipline and lack of behavioral biases at all time to ensure your plan is fully executed?
We can help you make sure your finances are optimal, or we will work with to make sure they are. Please read through our website, especially our Bios and ADV, and let us know what you think. If you are comfortable, let’s meet to better understand what you want and need.
