Can you save thousands on your lifetime tax bill with a simple strategy? Discover how tax gain harvesting can sometimes outperform Roth conversions when it comes to minimizing taxes on your investments. In this episode of the Early Retirement Podcast, I'll break down the nuances between capital gains taxes and ordinary income taxes and provide a practical example involving appreciated stock. Learn how you might pay 0% in capital gains taxes by strategically selling assets, using the capital gains tax brackets and standard deduction to your advantage. We’ll also address a real-life question about capital gains on a house sale, showcasing the broader benefits of tax gain harvesting for those with significant gains in brokerage accounts.
As we wrap up, I'll encourage you to submit your own questions through earlyretirementpodcast.com for future discussions. Sharing your queries helps us provide more tailored advice to our community. Don’t forget the importance of rating, reviewing, and sharing the podcast with others who could benefit from these insights. And remember, while I offer valuable information, consulting with a tax preparer or financial advisor is crucial before making any financial decisions. Tune in and take control of your financial future!

Ari Taublieb, MBA is the Vice President of Root Financial Partners and a financial planner specializing in helping people navigate an early retirement. I get it...retirement sounds overwhelming (an early retirement may sound particularly overwhelming)! Does it just feel like there's so much to consider and you just want to make sure you're doing everything you can to set yourself up right? If I may ask...why do YOU want to retire early? Do you want to travel? Have you just had enough of work? Do you want to spend more time with family (or on hobbies you've been putting off)? I created this podcast to help you know when work is now optional because you have a financial strategy that tells you when you can retire. You will learn all the investing tips in this financial podcast to set up the right portfolio for your goals. You may love what you do - and if that's you, great! I'm not saying stop working. But, I am saying, wouldn't it be nice to know when you didn't HAVE to work any more? When you would only go to work because you enjoyed it (crazy concept, I know). This is the ultimate retirement podcast (specifically, early retirement!). Retiring early, also known simply as "financial freedom", is having the ability to do what you care most about, MORE!
I don't want you to work unless you ENJOY it (finances aside, for just a moment)! My goal of this podcast is to give you all the tips and strategies so you can retire EARLY. Retirement planning, investing, personal finance, tax strategy, and you'll hear case studies from my clients and exactly how I've helped them navigate the transition into retirement. What are the right investment accounts to have in retirement? I want retirement planning to be simple for you so that you can retire early and maximize your retirement goals. Become a retiree and enjoy everything you've been waiting for your whole life (and start practicing retirement today)! I release new episodes every Monday with all the strategies (you'll learn that I love examples) so you can maximize your return on life (we use money to do this).
