First let me say thank you all for providing a wonderful resource! I've been lurking since this thread started and have enjoyed picking up bits of interesting information. I've also come to the conclusion that I should avoid wash sales (and all discussion thereof) and any notion of qualifying for trader status like the plague!
I have an unusual situation in that due to royalties on an invention I will have a much larger taxable income this year than last (and ever before). Is there some way to spread this income out over several taxable years? My mother (i.e. NOT a tax professional) thinks there is some way to average a large payment over proceeding and current years to spread the tax burden out. In my quick perusal of simple tax guides and the irs site I couldn't find any mention of this. I would greatly appreciate any information on this.

Thanks!

Ed
