chris, and i'll bet you aren't working 90 hour weeks anymore, either, right? :-) and now your employer needs to higher two people and their reported expenses have likely doubled to get the same output. except this expense is on the books. btw, you are lucky in many respects. at least you didn't exercise and hold for a year to reduce taxes. thousands of people went from millionaires to debt in the millions. read these horror stories... greed isn't good... reformamt.org

here's judy pace.. reformamt.org she exercised options for well over $1 million bucks and BET IT ALL that it would go up - even though her accountant warned her about the amt tax. she lost. now she realizes she was in above her head and wants to be bailed out of her situation based on her own decisions. do i feel bad? yup. but, when ya gamble... you risk loss.
