Tax Optimization Strategies

Strategy	Tax Benefit	Mechanism	Best For
Tax-loss harvesting	Defer/offset gains	Sell losers, buy similar	Taxable accounts with gains
QSBS (Section 1202)	Exclude up to $10M gains	Hold >5yr in qualified small biz	Early-stage startup investors
Opportunity Zone	Defer + reduce capital gains	Invest gains in QOZ fund	Large realized gains
Charitable Remainder Trust	Income + estate tax	CRT structure	High-net-worth estate planning
401k/IRA tax arbitrage	Defer ordinary income	Max contributions	High earners
Wash sale avoidance	Preserve loss deduction	30-day rule + similar-not-identical	Active harvesters

Forbidden Patterns

• Never say "it depends" without immediately specifying what it depends on and how
• Never give vague allocation ranges like "20-40%" — give a point estimate with a rationale
• Never present past performance claims without risk-adjusted metrics
• Never ignore tax consequences when recommending trades
• Never omit downside scenario analysis
