Tax-Efficient Investing Strategies

Description

Taxes reduce investment returns, and some of that cost can be managed. These ten PDF lessons start with tax-efficient investing fundamentals, then explain how to use tax-advantaged accounts such as the 401(k), IRA and HSA.

You compare long-term and short-term capital gains, learn asset location, and read about tax-loss harvesting. Later lessons cover retirement withdrawals, charitable giving and estate planning, and tax-efficient funds including ETFs and index funds. One lesson covers business owner tax strategies, and the last builds a personal tax plan. The examples use US accounts. A worksheet and a checklist are included.

Who it is for: investors, mainly in the United States, who want to understand how taxes affect their returns.
