All of the flying taxis companies are in the same boat. Pre Revenue, still building out their business.

I dont think any of them have much to correct at this point. It ran from 3 to 12 very quickly. Some pull back and/stability should be expected.

Same with Joby. Ran from $4 to $20.

There is opportunity cost. Especially if you are already up 100%+. We may be flat for another 6-12 b4 the next hype cycle hits.

Novice question, but I was a little confused, so I figured I'd ask.

Will my Roth IRA earnings count as part of my annual income?

For example, if I hypothetically made $15,000 off of my Amzn investment, that I only put $500 of principal into.

I realized the gain, but I never withdrew the money from the Roth IRA

Will that count as income that is taken into account when it comes to health insurance and things like that, or is it separate because it's within the Roth IRA?

I don't have an IRA, so I might be wrong.

But I believe its only taxed when a w/d is made.

From ChatGPT


Nope — your Roth IRA earnings do not count toward your annual taxable income in that situation.


Here’s why:


  • Roth IRA growth is tax-deferred and potentially tax-free — as long as the money stays inside the Roth IRA, it isn’t reported on your tax return, even if you sell investments and realize gains inside the account.
  • Selling your Amazon shares inside the Roth IRA just turns your investment from stock into cash (or another asset) within the account — no taxable event for regular income or capital gains purposes.
  • The IRS only cares about Roth IRA money for tax purposes if you withdraw it, and even then, qualified withdrawals are tax-free.

So in your hypothetical:


  • You put in $500 principal.
  • It grew to $15,500 (gain of $15,000).
  • You sold inside the Roth IRA but kept the money in the account.

Result: No impact on your current year’s taxable income, no need to report the gain this year.


The only thing that matters for taxes is whether you meet the rules for qualified Roth withdrawals (age 59½+ and account open at least 5 years) when you eventually take the money out.
