[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 2697026, member: 77814"]It varies yes. But I normally just tell people 28% (or 30 because it's easier for people to calculate things in their heads). Plus most people are thinking of short term flipping (though few actually pay taxes on it). The actual rate is determined by the amount of time (short vs long term) the PMs were held and the payer's ordinary income tax rate. So if it's a short-term (up to one year) or long-term (more than a year) capital gain is taxed at the max of 28% ST or 20% LT. If I recall if you are in the 10/15% tax bracket the CG is 0% for Long Term CG 25/35 is 15% LT CG 39.6 is 20% but check the IRS.gov website for accuracy. But it's something like that. That is one disadvantage to a PM ETF .. it's always reported thus you have to calc out your taxes on any potential gains, buy in/out fees, monthly fees, etc. I really don't want to think taxes ... I did my months ago ...[/QUOTE]
