I learned that the suppositions regarding that your tax bracket should be lower, and that paying off your house, both need to be re-visited with the negative consequences of increased taxes in retirement. Also, that when most of your taxable income is due to short term capital gains due to the significantly higher returns, you continually flirt with higher tax brackets then you would not like to be in. And that the expiration of the bush era cuts, will likely result in a 3% higher rate in 2011 and beyond for these higher brackets.
In short - I pay TOO D*@# much tax. I don't mind my fair share, but I feel like I'm paying a couple of somebody else's shares as well. Tax free Roth IRA growth of income is looking better and better.
