Regardless of whether I take the standard
deduction or not, it seems to me that I should be
able to deduct that investment interest expense
incurred in 1997 from my capital gains realized in
1997. Wishful thinking???


Jason,

I posted similar question (see #952).

Based on what I got from Tubor Tax, I do not think that I could
deduct my interest against my capital gains at all. I could
only deduct my interest expense up-to the amount of my interest income, which is only 1/5 of interest expenses (again, see #952)
