Someone could probably make a nice bit of money on the side helping new engineers in SF review/deal with their stock options. You'd have to know this stuff well, but I don't think that's a big hindrance to anyone.

Think of it as both giving back and pushing back on what can be predatory treatment of employees.

Isn't that what lawyers are for? I paid mine a small fee to review my equity agreement before I signed and I made it clear to my potential employer that I couldn't sign until my lawyer signed off on it.

A bunch of Silicon Valley CPAs do this as well as financial advisors/planners. This is a high-class problem to have though, which is also the point where one comes across the need to hire a financial advisor or have a professional CPA do some tax planning.
