IRA and Betting
« on: June 29, 2014, 01:54:50 PM »
The thought just occurred that while you can gamble all you like on stocks/options/futures in a retirement account, I\'ve never heard of the same for parimutuel.

  Is there a prohibition in the IRS rules?

  PS. A roth account would be the idea here, as you would owe deferred tax on all regular ira gains.
