The standard deduction for 2020 is $ 24,800 plus $ 1,300 for each household member over 65.

No. Since we’re both 65, there’s an additional $1300 apiece added. Ergo, $27400

Why exactly did you start a thread about the standard deduction?

That's for under 65. Over gets a little more, because they're special.

Mostly still in Robinhood. I did withdraw $200 to see how quickly I could get to the cash if in a bind. I’ve since deposited a lot more than that.

Will I only have to pay taxes on the $200?


Assuming you weren’t the worst investor in the world in 2020, you’re going to have to pay short term capital gains on the sum of all your realized gains less your realized losses for stocks held less than a year. (I’m assuming you opened this account in 2020 like 90% of Robinhood guys)

Short term gains are taxed at your regular income tax rate - basically the worst possible way.

Yeah they'll send you a tax statement and you'll have to input your trades. Only the ones that you sold in 2020.

You really thought you could buy and sell stocks in a brokerage account without paying taxes on your gain?

I assume you don’t know much about me. Ask Glassman about the hedge funds I’m referring to. I may be able to help you.
