which a created over several decades ago__Your 15% IS in the Ball Park.
Here in BC__Say WITH a Modest $35,000 of Other Income__The 250K Capital Gain
results in a Total Tax of
$44,402.58__Which is
17.76% on the 250K Gain
So like You Posted__Quite DOABLE Between YOU and the KIDS eh ?
BUT Would PAYING the TAX NOW Actually BE a GOOD CHOICE?
Do you Remember in your High School Physics examining FORCE__The Classic
""
For Every ACTION There WILL BE a REACTION""
Question then Would BE__IF you
TAKE the ACTION and PAY the $44,402.58 TAX
Then
WHAT Would BE the REACTION? The REACTION Would BE That
You WOULD Lose FOREVER the $44,402.58
by Giving IT to TruDope et al NOW__And This COULD REALLY HURT a LOT
The
OPPORTUNITY COST of THIS Could Be HORRENDOUS__INSTEAD of
Giving Away those $$$ to TruDope__INSTEAD You Could INVEST IT in
Shares of BCE for Example.
With a YIELD @ 8.5%__
Coupled With the POWER of COMPOUNDING__The
Results COULD BE Spectacular !!!
A $44,402.58 Investment in BCE__With a 8.5% Dividend Yield__
In 20 YEARS
Would BECOME $226,988.08__ADDING on
Another 10 YEARS Would Result
in a Whopping $513,216.28 !!!__Of Course BOTH Could BE Different Depending
on What BCE Share Price Does.
And KEEP in MIND That You
WOULD BE Doing This FOUR TIMES__To COVER
a $1 MILLION Valued Cottage.
So to PAY the TAX NOW?__To SAVE the Future ESTATE TAXES__Or NOT
PAY?__And Instead INVEST in BCE?
I KNOW What I WOULD Choose__What about You QUINT ??

I wasn't even going to have them pay for the quarter I was selling them.
Did you forget what we were trying to do here?
Its called F the taxman not the kids.
Now if I don't have the 50% to pay the taxman I am sure they would happily pony up 15% on the dollar.
GLTY and all.

Capital Gains Taxes @ the 50% Rate__Do YOU THINK They WOULD eh ????
So gift the kids a share say one quarter per year and keep the gain under 250k.
When and how do you think the CRA knows you changed your principal residence in
order to assess that gain? You're both just guessing and you really don't know.
CRA WILL BE Watching OUT For This__The ELECTION FORM That CRA ReQuires WILL
Keep a LID on ANY SHENANIGANS of TAX AVOIDANCE
