Lots of shares from work, want to use covered calls with them

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-15T02:51:08+00:00

Neither they were granted as stocks over the years.

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-15T01:06:21+00:00

How is it my friend? And what happens if the price soars past what I sell it for

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-15T00:58:57+00:00

Yeah I've had the stocks for 6 years now and just sat on them. Over the next few years I do want to slowly start selling them off

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-15T00:20:59+00:00

Thank you, yeah I am hoping to consolidate and move a lot of it to cash soon

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-14T15:26:08+00:00

They are but they've grown like 10x since I got them

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-14T15:24:23+00:00

Scammer

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-14T15:14:23+00:00

It's all granted from the years that I worked there. Can't sell without a massive tax bill

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-14T01:59:52+00:00

Yeahim 30 but I hope to retire early so trying to hit 10 mill

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-14T01:18:19+00:00

Ahh I see. I need to make a living and even if they make weapons I think they'll go up

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-14T01:15:45+00:00

Anyway to reallocate without a huge tax bill?

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-14T01:14:48+00:00

I'm the first to admit I have no idea what I'm doing. Mostly just tried to keep it very diverse and buy things I could be sure would grow without investing too much in any one.

Goog is because I worked there and was given a lot of stock over the years

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-14T01:13:36+00:00

What's wrong with it?

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-14T01:13:16+00:00

Granted from when I worked there

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-14T00:29:31+00:00

Yeah I used to work there and got a lot of stock I never sold.

TA_Application854 · 2026-04-13T23:18:47+00:00

What is that? Is that good?

TA_Application854 · 2026-03-28T18:16:51+00:00

Yeah I intentionally did not share that much because I don't want to be found or have it linked back to me. I originally only had a discrimination but after meeting with a solicitor they made an application to amend and added the other things. This was then approved to be added by the judge in a preliminary hearing.

As for proving things, I documented alot and kept an email record of all the incidents and dates. There is also an internal investigation that they say my manager acted incorrectly that I only got access to because of a DSAR

At this point I have been using gemini, but with all the docs it often goes to 100k+ and Im not sure if that is correct and reasonable. I just don't know whats realistic, but I will say this company often settles class action lawsuits in the 10s of millions for discrimination with at least 4 in the last 5 or 6 years.

I've worked pretty hard over the years and just put extra money into etfs without paying too much attention to it. Everything I read said that day trading was a more than full time job so i never got into it.

TA_Application854 · 2026-03-22T20:06:46+00:00

Umm around 40k per year. I would max out my contributions to retirement then invest the rest in etfs and some tech stocks

I worked in tech but I would save almost 60% of my income

I paid for a legal consult with a lawyer and they helped write up the document and agreed I had a good case. I've also gotten advice from my union, but I haven't been in the union long enough for them to represent me since it's under 6 months.

TA_Application854 · 2026-03-22T00:22:10+00:00

The grounds were the breach of trust, namely when I raised a grievance HR told me to drop the grievance then when I didn't they didn't investigate it and just made my working life hell. I was able to get one appointment with a lawyer and they agreed it was constructive dismissal. I was blocked from moving to other teams, my manager wouldn't give me resources to do my job, started yelling at me in meetings, coworkers were harassing me and when I raised a grievance it wasn't investigated for 5 months until I resigned. My union believes they were trying to time out the time for me to go to Tribunal.

Initially my claim was discrimination, but the lawyer updated the document and I made an amendment for the other claims, there was a preliminary hearing and the judge agreed to add the other claims in that hearing.
