So, pre-FIRE I have my accounts set up so equities are in my taxable accounts and bonds are in my tax sheltered accounts so I don't have to pay ordinary income tax on the bond interest.
I'm going to fire (again!) in January. Since my taxable income will be so low, doesn't it make sense to somehow switch my bonds to my taxable accounts and equities to tax sheltered?
My logic is that the equities will grow a lot more so it's better to have them in tax sheltered accounts so they can get bigger and my ordinary income from interest is so low it won't cost me much in taxes.
Did anyone else do this? Am I missing something? The current hangup with my plan is to try to minimize the capital gains hit from switching my taxable accounts to bonds (of course switching from bonds to equities in the tax sheltered accounts have no problem).
