If step-up assumed for legacy assets
You’re in a solid range—let’s make it resilient.
Even good projections benefit from a tax-aware, sequence-aware plan and a clear withdrawal or conversion strategy.
  • Your inputs suggest meaningful planning tradeoffs.
  • Small assumption changes can materially change outcomes.
  • A coordinated plan can reduce risk and improve efficiency.

Schedule a planning session to confirm you’re optimized and protected against downside scenarios.

Taxes now vs later
Nominal totals (simplified)

“Taxes later” includes turnover + liquidation at horizon. Future-year tax rates are held constant for illustration.

After-tax portfolio value over time
Directional comparison (simplified)

Display uses a straight-line proxy for tax timing; the totals/NPV cards are the primary outputs.

Waterfall: where savings come from
NPV components (simplified)

Step-up is shown separately to highlight the trade-off for legacy-flagged positions.

Model notes (important)
Plain-English explainers and disclaimers

Progressive tax treatment: LTCG brackets are stacked on top of projected ordinary income and “other capital gains.” This is a simplified planning model and ignores deductions, AMT, phase-outs, and special income types.

Netting & $3k rule: Losses offset gains first; any leftover loss may reduce ordinary income up to $3,000 if enabled. Carryforwards are not modeled.

Long-term projections: Returns compound at your expected return; future tax rates are held constant; turnover is an optional simplified proxy. This is directional guidance, not precise tax advice.

Wash sales: Not modeled. Always review replacement trades with wash-sale rules separately.
