Tax-Deferred and Tax-Advantaged Money

Balancing tax-deferred and tax-advantaged accounts is crucial to minimizing taxes in retirement.

 

  • Tax-Deferred Accounts: These accounts, such as traditional IRAs and 401(k)s, allow you to defer taxes until you withdraw the money. We help you strategically withdraw from these accounts to manage your tax liability effectively.
  • Tax-Advantaged Accounts: Roth IRAs and other tax-free accounts can be powerful tools in your retirement strategy. We help you incorporate these accounts into your plan to maximize their tax benefits, ensuring a more tax-efficient income stream.

RMD Withdrawal Strategies

Once you reach the age of 72, the IRS requires you to take Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) from your tax-deferred accounts. Navigating RMDs can be complex, but we’re here to help guide you through the process.

 

  • Timing and Amounts: We help you determine the optimal timing and amounts for your RMDs to minimize taxes and avoid penalties.
  • Integration With Other Income: Your RMD strategy should align with other income sources and financial goals. We ensure your withdrawals are coordinated with your overall retirement plan.
  • Tax Implications: Understanding the tax impact of your RMDs is crucial. We provide insights and strategies to manage these implications effectively.
