People seem to perceive higher ed is a commodity best bought at lowest price. Is it?
Scottrade apparently doesn't have the bought price of stock my father purchased 25 years ago under a custodial account.  I want to file taxes in the safest way, but I don't want to overpay, obviously.  Someone on Quora suggested that I tax my capital gain based on the difference between the lowest point of the stock in the year it was bought and the price at which it was sold.  I'm wondering if anyone thinks this is a bad or good idea?
