Congratulations on (the possibility) of a nice options payout that would erase a chunk of your mortgage. I have neither the possibility of options nor a mortgage. Living in L.A., houses are still way out of my price range. Wow. Congratulations on (the possibility) of a nice options payout that would erase a chunk of your mortgage.

WHEN you get the money from them worry about what to do with them, but do not rely on them, or you will be disappointed. I have seen two marriages destroyed by foolish reliance on options and their values, so I beg you to treat these as "manna from heaven" if they pay out. --C8j Do NOT count options as anything other than potential growth, do not plan around them, any income from them are WINDFALL, and should be treated as such.
