Bought Alibaba back in 2020 and it’s been downhill from there. Should I sell off the $3k max for tax loss harvesting? Does this just reduce my income tax on that 3k?? No other investment sales this year. New to this, thanks.

I just have to say that signing up for therapy (and finding my current therapist) was one of the best decisions I made in my life. I’m learning a lot about myself and how to live a happier life. I wish people could learn about these things without therapy. And I wish more people would be able to take advantage of counseling.

TurboTax vs freetaxusa. Which is worth? I always did TT and paid close to 250 to them after all manual work. I don't think it's worth as any CPA would charge same. Thinking of switching to freetaxusa this year. Have short term cap gains and mortgage. Any recommendations?
