We max out our 401ks and Roth IRAs. What investment vehicles are available to us to reduce tax exposure? Under what circumstances are TIPS viable / worthwhile, for example? We're looking to get some bond exposure; what are the tax implications to allocating funds to a Vanguard bond index fund?
I think I've understood that it's best to have funds which deliver dividends inside a tax-deferred account (ie 401k), can someone verify this with the reasoning? What is the best way to get growth in a taxable account while reducing tax exposure? What strategies do you employ?
