“Tax-gain harvesting will appeal to another group of people: retirees tapping their taxable accounts for living expenses. Early retirees can realize gains while in lower capital gains brackets today to immunize themselves against realizing gains in a higher bracket tomorrow after Social Security and the required minimum distributions from their IRAs begin.”
Phil DeMuth, The Overtaxed Investor: Slash Your Tax Bill & Be a Tax Alpha Dog

“This is why we recommended that you keep stocks in taxable accounts and bonds in tax-deferred accounts. We want most of the growth to occur in taxable accounts where it won’t end up getting taxed as ordinary income.”
Phil DeMuth, The Overtaxed Investor: Slash Your Tax Bill & Be a Tax Alpha Dog

“While real estate sounds like a safer place to invest than the stock market, and one that offers you greater control over your destiny, this is a mirage. Real estate investors seldom account accurately for either their returns or the risks they took to earn them. They need to calculate time-weighted returns on the one side (minus a scrupulous accounting for the value of their time in addition to their other expenses), as well as the risks of using leverage, which is a sword that cuts both ways. If real estate investing were a vastly superior proposition to stock market investing, or vice versa, everyone would have figured this out a long time ago.”
