9. Tax Deferred Investing Why Think Tax Deferral? A tax-deferred or tax/fee environment may permit you to compound assets faster as a result (Rule of 72). A Roth may permit you to prepay the tax & never pay tax again. Rule of 72: If your assets earn a 10% return it will take 7.2 years for them to double. (Divide your expected rate of return into 72. For example, 72/12=6 years, 72/10=7.2 years, 72/6=12 years. If paying tax on gains, how much longer will it take you to compound your assets?
