(Tuesday, Sept. 15, 2020; 10:30 PM EST) As a professional advisory firm, perhaps the most job important service we provide is as a "choice decider," someone you can rely on to prioritize your best choices for building your wealth and planning your future.
As a financial choice decider, it's important to tell you that perhaps the very best choice you could make right now is to pay attention to tax planning opportunities, and to show you choices you must make by the end of 2020.
Amid the stock market's headline-grabbing gyrations and record-setting performance, focusing on tax planning may seem counterintuitive but it's a strategic imperative. Here are three examples of potential tax problems that could arise and for which you need to be prepared before the end of the year:
If your family's situation involves an installment sale to the next generation or if you earn more than $400,000 a year, immediate action should be taken because implementing a solution may require drafting legal documents and estate and tax lawyers are expected to be busy between now and the end of 2020.
Please contact us about your personal situation, as the tax and other issues involved are substantially dependent on your personal circumstances.
