Vader,

I recently transferred my IRA shares @$2.40 to my normal investment account since I am old enough to do so.

My reasoning?

If WAVX goes big, as I expect it will, any gains in my IRA are taxable as straight income when I withdraw it. In my normal investment account, after 1 year, it is taxed at long term investment rates.

My choice was to pay straight income taxes on a $2.40/share withdrawal or a $24/share withdrawal versus a 15% LT gain.

I would recommend that anyone old enough run the figures.
