We previously bought VTSAX mutual funds in our taxable Vanguard account and still own it. Now we're thinking to invest one more time.
Question is : Is it complicated to buy a new set of VTSAX mutual funds to add to our existing ones ? I mean what does one need to take into account when buying different lots of the same fund (including taxes...etc) ? I have never bought different sets of the same stock ever to avoid having to deal with complicated taxes resulting from selling and capital gain. Are mutual funds the same as stocks ? How complicated is it at times of selling/taxes (if there's capital gain) when you own different lots of the same stock ?
