The Investor Advocate: Don't Fear Taxes - Fear Your Fear
http://theinvestoradvocate.blogspot.com/2011/01/dont-fear-taxes-fear-yourself.html
Thursday, January 20, 2011. Don't Fear Taxes - Fear Your Fear. One of my biggest weaknesses as an investor is not following one of my own rules.

However, I've caught myself SEVERAL times not grabbing the profits from an abnormally quick run upward, because I didn't want to have to pay taxes during that year. You can always buy more later. Common sense, right? Not for me or many other investors.
