The Long Game

How Direct Indexing Works (and Why the Wealthy Use It) (with Ben Lake, CFA®, CFP®)


Listen Later

In this episode, we break down direct indexing and long/short direct indexing, two powerful (and often misunderstood) tax strategies for high-income earners, business owners, and those with concentrated stock positions. We talk about:

  • The difference between ETFs, mutual funds, and direct indexing
  • How direct indexing helps you harvest tax losses while tracking an index
  • Who direct indexing makes sense for (and who should skip it)
  • When to switch from standard direct indexing to a long/short strategy
  • Real-world scenarios where direct indexing can create massive tax savings
