Transform your RSUs into a wealth-building strategy.

As a tech professional, your comp isn’t just your salary. RSU shares could be one of your biggest assets!

It’s tough to:

  • know when to sell,

  • plan for taxes, and

  • avoid unnecessary risk.

1. Single stock exposure

Many employees hold onto RSUs because they assume that’s the best long-term move.

Too much wealth could be tied up in employer stock:

  • If the stock price drops, your wealth takes a hit.

  • You already have a lot riding on your employer.

  • A balanced approach can help you capture gains and secure your future.

2. Tax plan

Some employees are surprised by their tax bills.

When your RSUs vest:

  • Some shares are withheld for taxes - though that might not be enough.

  • The value of your vested RSUs is taxed as ordinary income, even if you don’t sell.

  • Selling right away may have no additional tax impact.

3. Proactive strategy

Without a plan, it’s easy to miss opportunities or make mistakes.

Common missteps include:

  • holding too much employer stock,

  • not saving enough for taxes, and

  • missing out on better opportunities.

Professional guidance to help you!

  • Decide when to sell and how to reinvest wisely.

  • Minimize taxes and avoid surprises.

  • Diversify investments to protect and grow your wealth.
