[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't you pay these hefty taxes eventually and it's just a matter of when? [/quote] Yes, this is just prepaying taxes. Your basis will now be higher. But it’s not tax efficient for long term investments because you are reducing your investable income. [/quote] Can you explain this please? I opened a Vanguard brokerage account in November 2021 (invested in a Target Retirement Fund), I have lost money in the account in the two months I have held it due to poor stock market performance, and now Vanguard has issued me a 1099 saying I had $14,000 in capital gains in this account in 2021. I absolutely did not, so this isn't a question of paying taxes on my earnings. I have a net loss in this account. [/quote]
