High-net-worth individuals require astute and tailored financial strategies. In this video, we demystify tax planning by examining the tax considerations that come into play for those with substantial assets. From understanding your investment portfolio to exploring uncharted tax-saving territories like cryptocurrency, this video is your go-to guide for tax optimization.
One common tax-saving strategy is capital loss harvesting, where stock is sold at a loss to offset capital gains. However, traditional stocks come with a limitation – you cannot buy the same stock within 30 days before or after selling it to claim this loss. But here’s where it gets interesting: this rule doesn’t apply to cryptocurrency.
We delve into a real-life example where a client had over $100,000 in losses from cryptocurrency investments but also had significant capital gains. The conventional wisdom would have you believe that there’s not much room to maneuver here, but that’s not the case. By selling the cryptocurrency to harvest this loss and buying it back immediately, the client was able to claim a significant tax saving without changing their investment position.
This example highlights the importance of being well-informed and creative in your tax strategies, especially for high-net-worth individuals whose financial situations can be complex and diversified.
Whether you’re an employed investor, self-employed, or possess a mixture of investments, including stocks and cryptocurrency, understanding the nuances of tax laws is vital in safeguarding and growing your wealth.
