    For those of you into music analysis here is a great breakdown of “Wouldn’t it be Nice” by the Beach Boys. Pretty sophisticated song in my opinion. If you‘re interested, listen to Rick Beato’s analysis of the flip side, “God Only Knows.” My favorite 45 of all time

    Great post! I’ll even suggest that, at least for me, being a shredder is just a choice of musical preference, for which I have no desire.

    That will likely be taxed as income rather than LTCG. Generally, a stock sale would be highly preferable. im sure you are/will but figure out the tax implications of the two. It’s likely be preferable to structure a stock sale even at a lower sale price.
