Obviously wrong - a company car or a gym membership plan are part of your pay even though you can't use either to pay for goods and services

And I’m still trading labor for compensation that I’m exchanging for goods and services.

What type of goods and services can I exchange for illiquid equity or profit sharing that may or may not come years later?

Obviously wrong. You’re confusing pay with compensation.
