TFSA + PYR
If you want to maximize your wealth without paying capital gains a tfsa is the way to go. Be warned this is not for day traders for they will have to deal with the taxman. Only for longs.

Your Brokerage is required to send the CRA your TFSA statements, and as such, if your account has grown to a value far exceeding the maximum contribution limit, you can be rest assured they are reviewing it to determine the nature of the increase for taxation purposes[/quote]

Yes, if you OVER CONTRIBUTE. If you have not put in more than the allowable $69,500 todate. Once inside your TFSA if it grows to $500,000, you are NOT Taxed. [/quote]

Are you day trading, making cake, and withdrawing funds every 2 weeks or monthly from those gains? If you are, then you are using it as income....I have made a number of withdrawls from my TFSA over the years without issue, and its clear to see if audited, its clearly not "income"

I personally have just filled my TFSA each January with PYR and have continued to just hold, but a friend ran into trouble with the frequency and type of transactions. Best to talk to a tax accountant if one is not 100% sure of the rules

You do not get taxed on the amount you withdraw from a TFSA; in addition, any amount you withdraw can be added back to your TFSA the following year since it is added to your contribution limit. Thank you.

96KITE, you are not following along, you can grow it to $1B and NOT get TAXED, provided you didn't Day Trade your way there....it is NOT a Trading Account, it's an Investment Account....feel free to day trade in it, and you'll find out what happens after CRA calls you about your TFSA activity [/quote]

I seem to remember that, within a TFSA, you cannot rebuy a particular share within a 30 day period. So if you have stop losses set, they are triggered, your PYR sells off you cannot rebuy PYR for 30 days within the TFSA and remain within TFSA compliance rules.

Here is a sensible expanation of trading in your TFSA. You probably don't have anything to worry about unless you have a million bucks in there and/or are employed in the finance sector. https://www.moneysense.ca/save/investing/tfsa/taxman-after-your-tfsa-unlikely/

Just noticed few of the soft basher crew coming in about tfsa. You know that's bad when this forum is distracted and detracted.

I have to disagree. Any investor who is day trading in their TFSA is going to have severely impacted net after tax and penalties returns if they are reassessed. That makes this issue every bit as important as the issuer discussion.

All good Cdnbacon. Yes if daytrading, will cause problems. But I personally don't day trade, just invest and hold. Good discussion to have so people understand the risks of going "out of bounds" with the TFSA. Is it monday yet?...lol [/quote]

[/quote] As long as you are not trading with a relatively high frequency you should be fine when investigated. If you picked a couple lucky investments that are 10 baggers like PYR you will also be fine macer
