You're Invited: Investing Moves to Boost After-Tax Returns

You've worked hard to fund your portfolio — your investment strategy should work just as hard to maximize your after-tax returns.

On September 17, join Range's CFPs and CPAs live for the practical moves that put more of your returns back in your pocket.

What we'll cover:

  • Investment moves to maximize your after-tax returns

  • How tax-loss harvesting can lower the taxes you owe

  • When direct indexing works (and when it doesn't)

  • How to build a diversified portfolio that reduces tax drag.

Range is all-in-one AI wealth management — tax, investments, retirement, and estate in one place. Bring your questions for the live Q&A. Free to attend, and seats are limited.

This webinar is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice or a recommendation to buy, hold, or sell any security. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Range defines "high earners" as households with income over $300k.
