On this episode, Mark Riepe examines why investors often approach taxes with a short-term mindset and how that can undermine long-term financial outcomes. Mark is joined by Hayden Adams, director of tax planning and wealth management research at the Schwab Center for Financial Research, to explore the difference between tax preparation and year-round tax planning. They discuss how tax aversion and loss aversion can distort decisions around investing, account selection, and retirement distributions, often leading people to prioritize minimizing today's tax bill over maximizing lifetime after-tax wealth. The conversation emphasizes the value of taking a longer view on taxes and integrating them thoughtfully into broader financial-planning decisions.
