Jack Phelps, founder of The Relaxing Retirement Coach, explains that by focusing only on the tax consequences of an investment decision, investors often lose sight of the bigger picture.

Wellesley, MA – December 18, 2012 – Jack Phelps, founder of The Relaxing Retirement Coach, a Retirement Coaching company, recently published an article on his website (http://www.theretirementcoach.com) discussing investment strategy. The article, titled “Are You Letting The ‘Tax Tail’ Wag the Dog?” explains that tax consequences of investment decisions, while certainly important, should not be the only factor considered.

Jack Phelps writes, “This is a classic example that I’ve personally witnessed time and time again. And, it’s one of the great lessons of why the average investor not only doesn’t beat market averages, but instead, as statistics have now shown, earns 55% LESS.”
