Paid in Stock? Your Taxes Work Differently

Paid in stock? Your equity taxes work differently than a normal paycheck — your employer withholds a flat 22%, and if your real bracket is higher, the gap becomes a surprise tax bill in April. This short trailer introduces TaxMyVest, the free calculator that shows exactly what you'll owe before April does.
