If you're going to buy something which compounds for 30 years at 15% per annum and you pay one 35% tax at the very end, the way that works out is that after taxes, you keep 13. 3% per annum. In contrast, if you bought the same investment, but had to pay taxes every year of 35% out of the 15% that you earned, then your return would be 15% minus 35% of 15%-or only 9. 75% per year compounded. So the difference there is over 3. 5%. And what 3. 5% does to the numbers over long holding periods like 30 years is truly eye-opening.
