MONEY: Tax hikes coming!

Dear Team:

I don’t see much news I can use?

  • Possibly pre-pay medical premiums (e.g., Maybe 7200$ x and y premiums; see if I can prepay z premiums?).
  • ROTH conversion rarely makes any sense (i.e., pay taxes now to maybe save them later)?
  • Take cap gains in taxable accounts (i.e., doesn’t fit with the Edelman style of investing).

Did I miss anything?

This is a recent email sent out. Recognize that if the Congress critters do nothing, which is their MO, we get slammed with a gigantic tax hikes in 1/1/13.

Don’t think there is much to do, but revolt.
