I am considering investing my tax return over paying off a chunk of my student loan debt. I have on average earn 11% using robinhood (without trying) and my highest loan rate is 7.75%. If I apply myself I predict I can do much better than currently.
I know capital gains tax is 5% for my tax bracket (USA). Any other reasons I would lose money?
Will this make my gains negligible, and am I better off financially just putting them towards student loan debt?

Did you apply cap gains taxes to the robinhood?

split the difference. say 25% loans 75% Robin.

I'd recommend the split to target loan balance down to below 50%. for that credit BOOOST

You have to be delusional if you think you can get a consistent 11% return on some shill app.

Ya thats what I'm talking about. For example gonna use $1000 as my principle for both.
1000*.0775*1= $77.5 interest per year (student)

1000*.11*1 = $ 110 - (110 * .05) = $104.5 after capital gains per year.

That's a $27 dollar difference and since I don't need to pay back loans till I graduate that is just free money.

Robinhood as an app has nothing to do with my % return retard. Insert any other brokerage platform and I'll have to pay fees

No, you don't. lol

Immediately pay off the 7.75%, anything above 5% is solid guaranteed returns.

Imagine if the US has a low inflation near 0% or a decade of low growth and how cucked you will get.

If you could get consistent returns of 11% a year, sell everything and turn 100K into 5M+ by retirement.

You know your argument only works if Robin Hood is equivalent to the other platforms, right?

Instead of asking /biz/, you can read the rules from the IRS itself

You know what?

One of the best and easiest gangsta mothafuckin calculators or cackalaytas was the TI 82.

They are like $5 on ebay and can do 99% of anything you would ever need. You can even oc the damn thang.
