我记得合格股息的税率最高是20%啊，所以还好吧。
不合格股息的税率才是37%，但老巴长期持有所以肯定是合格股息税20%

Berkshire Hathaway (BRK) does pay dividend taxes to the IRS, but in a somewhat unique way compared to most companies. Here are the key points:
- Berkshire Hathaway itself does not pay dividends to its shareholders. This allows the company to avoid paying taxes on distributed profits and reinvest all earnings for growth.
- However, Berkshire Hathaway owns many dividend-paying stocks in its investment portfolio. The company receives substantial dividend income from these holdings.
- As a corporation, Berkshire Hathaway benefits from the “dividend received deduction” (DRD) when it receives dividends from its stock holdings. This allows the company to deduct a significant portion of dividend income received from other companies for tax purposes.
- The effective tax rate on dividend income for Berkshire Hathaway is likely below 10%. For non-insurance companies like Berkshire Hathaway (the parent company), the federal tax rate on dividends is effectively 10 cents per $1 of dividends received.
- Warren Buffett has noted that Berkshire pays taxes on these dividends, though at a lower rate than individual investors would. He has sometimes expressed frustration at this tax inefficiency, preferring companies that reinvest profits rather than pay dividends.
- The company’s large cash hoard (over $125 billion as of 2022) allows it to make acquisitions and investments without relying on dividend income.
In summary, while Berkshire Hathaway does pay some dividend taxes to the IRS on the dividends it receives from its stock holdings, it benefits from corporate tax rules that significantly reduce its tax burden compared to individual investors. The company’s strategy of not paying dividends itself helps it maintain tax efficiency and reinvest profits for growth.
策略上老巴确实厉害, 对于比较年轻的我, 不想拿太多股息, 打算加仓BRK
富人避税我只知道trust fund躲避遗产税还有建立慈善基金会避税
20%也不低吧
如果是离岸公司，完全可以找0%或者10%地区。
我的意思是税率空间这么大，巴菲特能这么玩又不能用离岸公司这种操作，肯定是有其他操作空间
