Morale of the story… Invest more work less….and tax advantage of the more favorable tax rates for cap gains and dividends and investment income. Learned that one a long long time ago.[/quote]
I am investing in the market more making nice returns but I don’t think tax rates are more favorable for investments. Short term is worse, taxed 3.8 percent higher because of obamacare. Long term isn’t much better, taxed at 18.8 or more likely 23.8.
If the trump tax passes, it stays the same and doesn’t get any better.
