Employee Stock Purchase Plans

Not all employ stock purchase plans are created equal. You need to review your plan document to see ok, if i buy this, could i actually redeem it for cash to morrow? Or do i have to hold this stock for a certain period of time before i can liquidate it? In my mind, that sounds a lot like free money. I think i' got to capitalize on that while it's available to me. Artbrin: If you're in a mature enough place on the financial order of operations, and then selling it after 12 months is fine too.
