1.)If I purchase a stock and make $$$ from it, yet I don't pull the $$$ out, I just let it ride on the shares do I still have to pay taxes on it even though I haven't used the $$$?

1.Sale of security trigger tax event unless in an IRA. Not an accountant, but have paid lots of taxes. 2.Several things come to mind A-Setup a ROTH IRA B-Consider tax before you sell and make sure you are covered. I see these on the penny board having several trades a day,and wonder if they are keeping track of this. You can only write off $3000/yr losses, but must report & pay your gains. Dollars above $3k may be carried forward.
