I&#x27;m coming up on a year at my job, so I&#x27;ll be vesting my first 25% of options. Since I wasn&#x27;t given the total number of shares (to say nothing of preferences) when I received the agreement, I&#x27;m not sure how I&#x27;m even supposed to evaluate their worth. Therefore, I don&#x27;t be buying any of them.<p>How does this process work? I am afraid of being asked if I want to buy them, and having to come up with an answer that makes it sound like I&#x27;m a &quot;team player&quot;. But, I don&#x27;t consider lottery tickets a good investment, especially if I don&#x27;t even know the theoretical value!
Ask HN: I'm about to vest stock options – I don't want them. What do I do?
