Ed R asked:


I really screwed up and have over $50,000 in investment losses this year! Our gross income from salaries for this year will only be around $50,000.

In addition, I lost $5000 in my Roth IRA. I just read that I can only deduct $3,000 in investment losses. Does that include IRAs PLUS regular investment activities?

Also, will any interest I accrue via CDs or dividends from stocks or mutual funds essentially be tax-free now since I have such a large investment loss? Or is that a different category?

Please help, I really screwed up this year and am hoping somebody has some suggestions to make this better. Thanks in advance!

Sir Anon asked:


A few years ago I invested in (and went to work for) a start-up LLC with a lot of momentum and potential. Unfortunately, there weren’t enough sales to keep it going and I was laid off, and my investment became essentially worthless.
Additionally, I can’t even write off my investment for taxes. The company’s founder still keeps the LLC alive on a part-time basis, and it does still have some assets left and never officially folded. But as the LLC is basically dead (no employees for 2+ years; virtually no chance of recovering) the shares I bought are essentially worthless.
Is there anything I can do to at least show the loss for tax purposes, even though (on paper) my share of the company is still worth thousands of dollars? Also, because there’s only 1 employee left (the founder) who works on behalf of the company anymore, it’s a struggle each year to even get a Schedule K-1 from the LLC to do my taxes (don’t have one yet this year). What should I do if I don’t receive a K-1?

www.kingabdullahcity.com/en
In what is part of the “Dawning of a new age in Saudi Arabia”, Saudi Arabia the largest economy in the Middle East and one of the fastest growing economies of the world, has come up with a concept of Economic mega cities(yes….cities in their own right), as part of its severe and immediate economic reforms, being built that will utilize the country’s core resources while providing employment and homes for its citizens and for the first time, opening massive projects for tourism similiar to the kind found in neighbouring gcc countries, but with a challenge of promoting a non- alcoholic and non *** exploited industry. The first of these is the King Abdullah Economic City, an industrial and financial complex being built north of Jeddah on the Red Sea coast. The cost of construction, which began in 2005, is $26.7 billion. EMAAR a dubai based holding company and in charge of several projects of dubai, is the prime partner and this is its largest project ever. In addition to King Abdullah City, three other integrated economic cities were launched last year: Hail, in the north, Medina in the west, and Jizan in the far southwest. Construction on a fourth city, at Tabuk in the north, is due to begin later this year.

The cities are being developed in accordance to the cluster concept and are being modeled on Silicon Valley and similar conurbations in Singapore and Ireland.
The ultimate objective of the economic cities is the establishment of ten global industries in which Saudi Arabia will be number one or two.

Enjoy the video.
