Tax-Focused, Fee-Only Financial Planning for Executives
Both Portland, OR & Minneapolis, MN are home to a number of innovative start-ups and established companies that commonly incentivize high performing employees with any combination of Incentive Stock Options (ISOs), Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), Non-Qualified Options (NSOs), and Employer Stock Purchase Plans (ESPPs).
Used appropriately, incentive stock can be an incredible building block for building your personal net worth. On the other hand, it can also come with a great deal of complexity, numerous headaches, adverse tax and cash flow consequences, and gut-wrenching volatility.
If you'd like to partner with a team of experts in financial planning, tax, and incentive stock who are passionate about helping you achieve your goals, why not schedule a call to see if we can help?
