<prompt> Human: I know its a little late to do many last minute financial transactions, but I was thinking about last minute things to do before 2015 ends. I could only really think of 1 or 2 things. Anyone have any tips? Sell any stock losses for tax purposes if I didnt want to keep them anyway If I didnt have one already, I make my 2015 Tax folder for W2s, 1099, etc. Make last minute charitable donations.EDIT: Additions from comments Consider Series I EE savings bonds. Get 5,500 ready for IRA contribution on first business day of next year  <response>: Yeah, its a little too late for this year. The one Id add to your list, though, for future reference, is:Buy Series I and Series EE savings bonds from the Treasury and expand your effective tax-advantaged space
