    Is Tax-Loss Harvesting Right For You?

    During this quarter of the year, one of the most popular questions is: I heard about tax-loss harvesting from my friends/CPA/family. Should I do it? Tax-loss harvesting is a strategy investors use to offset capital gains by intentionally selling investments in taxable accounts at a loss. While it may be useful for a complex taxable account, it doesn’t necessarily make sense for someone with smaller investable assets.  It may even hurt the long-term performance if executed improperly. In this episode, Nathaniel discussed some misconceptions of this strategy, the pros, and the cons. Stay tuned.

    A 1031 Exchange for Real Estate Investments: Is it Right for You?

    When it comes to private investments, guess what topic we get asked the most? Yes, real estate! Today, we will discuss a strategy called the “1031 exchange”. The biggest advantage is the tax deferral function. You can keep rolling from one real estate investment to the next (with some nuances.) And if you do it right, it can potentially eliminate capital gains taxes entirely for your heirs. But as with all financial tools, it’s not for everyone. A 1031 exchange also has some strict rules and significant drawbacks. Is it right for you?

    How to pick a Financial Advisor? Part 1 - Fiduciary Duty

    This is our “How to pick a financial advisor” mini-series.  First, did you know that only roughly 15% of financial advisors are “fiduciaries”, meaning we are legally and ethically bound to act in the best interests of our clients.  The rest are operating their business under the “suitability rule”, meaning they don’t need to do what’s best for you, as long as it isn’t grossly inappropriate.  Some brokers may say that they “act” as fiduciaries, but that may hold no legal validity.  Dan discusses why it’s important to find a true fiduciary advisor, and how you can verify this information.

    How Do High Interest Rates Impact Your Investments?

    As you may have already heard, the Federal Reserve announced that it plans to hold interest rates steady amid high inflation, and forecasted just one cut in 2024 instead of three to six.  In this episode, Nathaniel discussed what that means for your investments.  And why did the market keep going up in a high-interest rate environment when in theory should have gone down?
