With a capital gains tax of 20%, and inflation eating up another 20%, investing $100 two years ago:

$100 - investment
$34 - increase in portfolio value
$134 - on statement

Cash in:

$134.00 - check to you
- $6.80 - check to IRS

$127.20 - net after taxes
-$25.44 - inflation tax of 20%

$101.76 - purchasing power relative to 2 years ago.

$1.67 - increase in purchasing power over 2 years

.88% - increase in purchasing power/yr average
