The moment you sell your investment is the exact moment you will trigger a taxable event. So, if you never sell your investments, you will never pay taxes, no matter how much your investments are worth. This is literally why the ultra-welfare has over $8.5 trillion in unrealized capital gains. They simply hold on to their investments and let their wealth grow and grow without ever paying a single penny in taxes. So, if you are considering selling an asset and you don't want to pay taxes, I would first deeply challenge your why. Why do we need to sell this investment right now? If it is a good long-term investment, maybe we hold on to it.
