Hard to tell if it’s a good time to buy, my inclination is “yes” but then again I’m a realtor. It’s always a good time to buy!

The idea is that each time I sell just enough shares to cover the profit on the shares I have just sold thereby not incurring any taxable income. Naturally I will have to incur a tax liability sooner or later but I prefer later.

@ Sire, Good thinking. You may also be able to take a loss on the shares you sell.

In regards to shares I have one in particular that is only worth about a third of the original value. There is no way I am going to sell it as it would incur to great a loss so I was wondering what I could do instead of just waiting for it to go up which could take months if not a year or two.

I hit upon a plan. I purchased a few shares at the lower price and when it went up a few dollars I sold those share as well as enough shares of the original stock which would wipe out the profit I just made. With that money I bought mores shares at a lower price and am now waiting for the cycle to repeat. I hope to bite into my original shares a bit at a time wearing it away until I have even more shares than the original amount but at the lower price. When the shares finally reach the old price I would have made a sizable profit rather than just having the original value.

@Elijah, Good quote simple but gets the point across.

@ Sire, exactly now is a terrific time to invest.

With every problem there is a solution, one just has to find it and this can be achieved with a positive attitude. Take the current economic crisis. Most things that you read about it is all about doom and gloom, when in reality, for those that have a bit of spare cash, it is probably the best time to invest in the share market. I suppose one would even find that now is the best time to pick up some pretty good real estate deals as well.

Yan said it best for me.. problems can only be truly dealt with once they are recognized.

Problems, like mistakes, are to be seen as opportunities for growth!
