It would be very interesting for me if you could give some rough idea of what your tax-related costs were pre- and post-FIF, if you have them handy? Nothing super specific, but the problem I have is that I don't know what costs are incurred if FIF is avoided. To me it seems like non-FIF investments should result in much less tax (assuming the share prices grow rather than large dividends being paid). Thanks!
