He is hoping to have to pay a lot more tax with his strategy. He hopes to hit a moonshot and find a ten or hundred bagger, outside of his index funds. This will obviously incur a higher CGT liability.
Thanks deep blue - a very eloquent summary of my thinking here.
Point is, it's not about tax at all. It's just a question of having money and deciding what to do with it, given that NISA is full.
You can invest in the market, or you can hope you're on the winning side of a zero sum game (minus fees).
