Great, so you have held for at least a full year. That means you're good to go for long term capital gains, assuming you're a burger. Don't think you can cash out that amount of money without attracting the fed. 10k, or any amounts that added up exceed it triggers flags at any bank you'd transfer to where they directly report you to the IRS by law. Good business isn't tax evasion, it's minimalization. The long term eligibility alone cuts your tax burden in half. You'll still be subject to the 3.8% NIIT tax. Take 434,000 and subtract your annual income. The number that is left is what you can sell and be at the 15% tax bracket, or 18.8% with NIIT figured in. Above 434k in both gains and annual income and the bracket tops out at 20%, or 23.8 with NIIT figured in. Otherwise with short term you'd be at 40%, just like lotto winnings. If you do cash out, or rather when you cash out, be sure to first find and consult three people... A good lawyer, a good CPA, and a good financial consultant. Describe the situation to them and ask them what you should be thinking about before you make your move. It'll be the best 5k you could ever spend in your situation. Good luck
