Tax Broke
Stock optioners who once dreamed of financial security, now have nightmares trying to figure out how to pay millions in taxes for money they say they never saw

With high-tech stocks climbing at a frenzied pace, optioners had visions of early retirement and being fixed for life financially. And the U.S. economy was soaring in good part because of these workers. Then last year the market lost steam. Dot-com companies started shutting down, and within months, optioners' dreams turned into nightmares. This year optioners found themselves with tax debts in the hundreds of thousands or millions for money they claim they never really possessed.
