It’s not what you make that matters: it’s what you keep. That’s because the financial benefit you receive from your investments is dependent not only on the performance of your assets but also on the amount of tax those investments are subject to.

Consider a scenario where two different investment strategies receive similar gains but have different consequences for tax. If you choose the strategy with a higher tax bill, you are needlessly sending thousands of dollars to the government. If you had instead chosen the more efficient strategy, you could be reinvesting those same dollars. Over time, compounding interest will mean the second, more efficient strategy will be far more successful.
