Sorry that's complete nonsense. it's routine in Europe and the UK to offer stock options. what's more you're only taxed when any gains are actually crystallised - so much more attractive / less risky than the US.

That's.. how it works in the US. I have options. I haven't paid any tax or received any actual stocks.

This is not completely true. The taxation differs country to country in Europe.
