The Non-Qualified/Taxable Account Dilemma

Investments

High earners must be especially careful with asset location.  After all, you can only contribute so much to your 401k/403b plans. After maxing out employer-sponsored plans and retirement accounts, you are forced into looking at non-qualified (taxable) account options.

Pay close attention to how certain assets are taxed.

A couple of examples:

Municipal bond interest is federally tax-free, but the current rates for most investment-grade municipal bonds are low.

Corporate bond interest is taxed at ordinary income.  For most high earners, it just does not make sense to own corporate bonds in taxable accounts.
