Hello,
I had very large gains in 1999, paid approximately $50k taxes on them, then in the stock market bust of 2000 lost most of it. Besides the great learning lesson, I'm now carrying over $250k of capital losses and $30+k of margin interest paid carryover. I've invested most of my portfolio in a house which I plan to keep. My problem is that i will never use up my capital gain carryovers. Any ideas how I could benefit from them? Is there any income averaging or re-statement of those tax years that could help? Thanks in advance.
