What Type of Account Do You Use?

[Kerim]

I agree that the tax-deferred accounts are the best, but my dividend growth stocks are spread across several accounts, one taxable and a couple of IRAs. I wish that they were consolidated -- it would make things easier, but it evolved the way it evolved, so here I am. To look on the bright side, I guess I have the best of both worlds -- tax savings and accounting simplicity in the IRAs and easy access to my funds if I need them in the taxable account.
