I'm trying to wrap my head around this, but in my mind I'd be looking at similar results.
Right now I have a decent amount in a stock brokerage account invested, let's say in VOO.
If I sell, I take 15% loss on the gains. Then invest into my roth IRA to max it which is post tax.
If I leave it in, I get taxed at 15% at retirement.
It's the same… right? Or am is there something I'm missing that I should take advantage of?
