Was wondering though if anyone's familiar with the provisions of the 
Net Investment Income Tax (NIIT):  its a +3.8% addition from the 
American Care Act ("Obamacare") that hits earned interest, dividends and 
LTCG once one's "MAGI" earnings exceed a certain value.

Just one more variable for contemplation of strategies when undergoing 
optimization of income vs taxes.

And for Mac content...

It is that using one's spreadsheet App is helpful to build up personal 
ledger (in free form) to help keep relevant entries sufficiently 
organized, and focus on personal priories.  I've found it useful to 
build out what's effectively an annual checklist so that one doesn't 
overlook reportable items.  Doesn't matter if they're individual 
accounts, or items reported on various forms that shouldn't be forgotten 
for various tax credits (eg, foreign taxes paid, etc).
