Inputs
Your equity
One stack per ticker (current-employer RSUs, prior-employer holdings, index fund, etc.). Each stack has its own current price, growth assumption, and cost-basis lots.

Plan
Estimates only. Not financial advice.
Lock-in-now is deterministic (0%). Plans that wait depend on future prices; risk is near-zero when inventory comfortably exceeds the goal. Volatility: each stack's option-implied vol if a ticker is set, otherwise 30%. Lognormal model; real markets have fatter tails.

Equity comp at Banzai International, Inc.
- Banzai International went public via a SPAC (a shell company that merges with a private business to take it public without a traditional IPO) merger with 7GC & Co. Holdings in December 2023 and trades on Nasdaq as BNZI. As a small, distressed public company, it has executed two reverse stock splits to stay above Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement (1-for-10 in July 2025, then 1-for-20 effective May 2026) and has repeatedly registered resale and shelf share offerings that dilute existing holders. Equity holders with legacy options or RSUs should account for this history of reverse splits and dilution when valuing their position.

If you hold vested Banzai International, Inc. (PARA) shares and need a set amount of cash by a date (a house down payment, tuition, a sabbatical, a business buy-in), the question is which lots to sell and in which tax years to keep the most after tax. This calculator builds the minimum-tax sell schedule across your lots, accounting for federal long-term capital gains, the net investment income tax, and your state.
Example: a 5,000-share PARA position at $0.57 is worth $2,825. Say you need $150,000 of it for a house down payment by next spring. Selling enough shares all in one tax year can push the gain into the higher long-term capital-gains bracket and trigger the 3.8% net investment income tax; spreading the sale across two tax years often nets more. The calculator above finds the minimum-tax sell schedule across your specific lots, basis, goal, and date.
