CD's are paying a ton these days. Cash may in fact be king. You're getting taxed on most investments, especially relatively liquid ones. It's worth it. |

As opposed to what other type of investment? CD interest is so low these days, you might not even earn enough interest to have to pay tax on it. |

They're only good for saving money that you're going to need in the forseeable future. In that case there are not too many other safe, guaranteed short term options so if it's for that purpose, yes it's worth paying the tax on the interest. If it's to make money, then no because correct me if I'm wrong but you don't get the benefit of the lower capital gains tax rate for investments bought and hold do you?
For the person above:
How could you not earn enough interest to pay the tax on it, the tax is a percentage of the earnings which is the interest! |

If it is interest you don't need, why would you pay Taxes on it?
If this is money you do NOT need to access until age 59 1/2 or more than Fixed Annuities or Fixed Index Annuities would be the best choice.
All of the Interest would Accumulate Tax Deferred. However, the IRS in exchange for this Tax Deferred treatment will impose a 10% tax penalty for any withdrawals prior to age 59 1/2.
If you are over age 59 1/2 you don't have this IRS penalty issue.
Remember, you are NOT restricted in the amount of money you can put into fixed annuities. You can put in Millions of Dollars if you want and it all grows Income Tax Deferred and avoids Probate in most States.
Again if you are under age 59 1/2 and this is Long-term money and you will be letting the interest accumulate, then Fixed annuities are the best choice. It is very Stupid to Pay Taxes on Interest in accounts you are accumulating.
To Review Rates on Annuities and obtain additional information go to:
The best place to go would be an independent professional or a service that provides access to the majority of annuities available on the market and allows you to compare some of these Annuities online 24/7 before you make contact with them. One of those professionals/services is http://www.jdsannuities.com/annuity_rates . Go and see the difference! |
