Gold has been on a remarkable run, but investors thinking about cashing in may be overlooking an important detail: taxes. On this episode of the Retire Your Way with ILG Financial Podcast, Chase breaks down how gains from physical gold, gold-backed ETFs, and gold futures can all be taxed differently and why selling at the wrong time or in the wrong account could create an unexpected tax bill. It is a timely conversation for retirees and pre-retirees who want to better understand how gold fits into a broader financial strategy before making a move.
