- dan-robertson 6y agoIt’s not super obvious to me. If I bought some shares in some company and they went up 10x, I don’t think I could get out of the tax by gifting them to someone else (though maybe I could get out of it if I gifted them to a charity). Taxes can be a bit weird with investments in general. eg if you invest in a mutual fund that reinvests dividends, you only pay tax when you realise gains, whereas if you invested in an equivalent mutual fund that didn’t reinvest dividends but reinvested them yourself, you would be liable for tax on the dividends before reinvesting them which means less compounding. Obviously this all massively depends on local laws and weird specifics.
