Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I am wondering if it makes sense for me to sell securities with LTCG up to the 15% tax bracket for 2017. I hate what it does to my tax bill, but in the long run I wonder if I might end up paying more than 15% in taxes if I wait. I would sell and then repurchase immediately at the higher cost (there is no wash sale implications for gains, if I am correct). Resetting at the higher basis also seems to make sense.
If I do this I would need to pay estimated income tax on those gains, and I have no idea how to do that.
Gosh - this seems like work
Thoughts ?
