Hello. I am not very knowledgeable about stocks, and I am not looking to get into stocks or stock trading, but I am set to inherit a shitload of a stock called kimberly-clark. I was just told they're a paper company. I am being asked if I want to cash out the stocks and receive the money, or give given the stocks. I don't even know how I would receive the stocks. I can hold and spend cash but I can't do that with stocks.
I kind of don't have a good reason to want to learn all about stocks and receive the stocks. The cash would actually be useful to me. But I don't have any idea how to know if this is a bad thing to do going forward. If I just take the cash will I incur all kinds of taxes or something?
