Let's say Hog's kid wants to spite his dad and he moves to California. He starts an AI company called LincolnLover and it becomes a huge hit. The company becomes worth 100 billion and Hog's kid owns 60% of it. He doesnt want to lose control of the company. He doesnt want to pay 33% fed + California capital gains rate on any stock sales so he borrows 10 million a year to live high on the hog.

I like it.
 
Besides extensions, or natural disasters, I don't know how any "working class" person defers income tax.

401K, IRA

Full exclusion of cap gain on sale of home up tl 500K

Plenty pf ways for them to defer, save elsewhere

But the working class needs more of their income to subsist than I do. Therefore I can defer and a much larger scale than they do.
 
I understand now.

The scale of the amounts is so immense, the "normal" way of thinking doesn't apply.

The more normal way would be a billionaire who is approaching retirement age and they invested in Nvidia 20 years ago and they still hold it. They will borrow against it before cashing it out because of step up basis in stock....

Hey McDad, when you go to prison you dont get to use the “I got my tax advice on Volnation” as a free out of jail card.

Trust me..I used TJ at the Texaco station.

Let's say you're name is Forrest, you have a 75 IQ, and you bought 1 million stock in Apple. It became worth 5 billion dollars.

One day, you realize that you caught AIDS from Jenny. You know you would likely die in 1-2 years. Instead of selling stock to live and provide for Forrest Jr., you borrowed against the value of it. You finally die from the AIDS and Forrest Jr's basis in the stock the value of the stock when you die (5 billion) so if he sells the stock, he will have no capital gain...
 
Question for @Berry4Heisman14 and open to anyone who is dissatisfied with our cap gains tax law.

I can sell a piece of investment real estate for 345k. I purchased it for 45k. Rather than paying 60k (300k x 20%) to Unkie Sam, I defer the tax indefinitely and roll the 345 into another property.

Is that a 'loophole'?
Do I have a moral obligation to pay the cap gains tax since others cannot defer income tax?
If the amounts were increased 1000x (purchased for 45M, Sold for 345M, deferred 60M in tax) does it change your answers to the other two questions?

Can you buy something a little cheaper and pocket the difference?
