Here are a few highlights from their conversation about Biden's proposed tax plan:

  • President Biden’s tax proposal may raise as much as $3.3 trillion over the next decade, Jared says. He is expected to raise long-term capital gains tax on wealthy Americans to 43.4% with the inclusion of the Medicare surtax.
  • “I think this is an exciting time for us,” Joe remarks, “in terms of looking for new opportunities and structuring things differently. It’s going to create some more tax drag for a number of taxpayers, but it definitely brings new opportunities.”
  • The estate tax exemption has never been higher than it is today. Biden’s proposal may revert that exemption down to $3.5 million per person. This provides taxpayers with a window to do some estate planning, Joe says.
  • Planning can be a great way to deal with the inevitable change that the future promises, Jared advises. Tax and financial plans are strategic scaffolds to navigate your priorities.
