What I think you are saying is that you would like for the company to completely fill us up to limits. I think... that there are many positions that will see those limits exceeded with the current level of contribution. If I am wrong, my apologies, and it is something that could/should be addressed. I would however, like to see it somehow front loaded.

As more of us find our ways into the top 2%...1% of income earners in this country, taxation is the elephant in the room.

I'll leave it at that.

Time for my second cup of coffee
Give a pilot a bag of money and he’ll complain that it’s too heavy.

Seriously though, what about an option to take salary in the form of stock, like the C-level players, interested?

At their discount rate? In a freaking heartbeat if it hits my account before the market opens and is immediately optionable and tradeable.
