Consult your tax professional about eligibility to Roth and Traditional IRA contributions. Contributions and earnings in a Roth IRA can be withdrawn without paying taxes and penalties if the account owner is at least 59 1/2 and has held their Roth IRA for at least five years. Traditional IRA account owners have considerations to make before performing a Roth IRA conversion. These primarily include income tax consequences on the converted amount in the year of the conversion, withdrawal limitations from a Roth IRA, and income limitations for future contributions to a Roth IRA. In addition, if you are required to take a minimum distribution (RMD) in the year you convert, you must do so before converting to a Roth IRA. #personalfinance #retirementincome #financialplanning #financialfreedom #financialadvisor #retirement #investing #stockmarket #mortgage

Consult your tax professional about eligibility to Roth and Traditional IRA contributions. Contributions and earnings in a Roth IRA can be withdrawn without paying taxes and penalties if the account owner is at least 59 ½ and has held their Roth IRA for at least five years. Traditional IRA account owners have considerations to make before performing a Roth IRA conversion. These primarily include income tax consequences on the converted amount in the year of the conversion, withdrawal limitations from a Roth IRA, and income limitations for future contributions to a Roth IRA. In addition, if you are required to take a minimum distribution (RMD) in the year you convert, you must do so before converting to a Roth IRA.

Such a plan does not assure profit and does not  protect against loss.  Economic forecasts set forth may not develop as predicted and there  can be no guarantee that strategies promoted will be successful.  There is no assurance that the techniques and strategies discussed are  suitable for all investors or will yield positive outcomes.  The purchase of certain securities may be required to effect some of the strategies. Investing involves risks including possible loss of principal. Consult your tax professional about eligibility to Roth and Traditional IRA  contributions. Contributions and earnings in a Roth IRA can be withdrawn  without paying taxes and penalties if the account owner is at least 59 ½  and has held their Roth IRA for at least five years. Traditional IRA account owners have considerations to make before performing a Roth IRA conversion. These primarily include income tax consequences on the converted amount in the year of the conversion, withdrawal limitations from a Roth IRA, and income limitations for future contributions to a Roth IRA. In addition, if you are required to take a minimum distribution (RMD) in the year you convert, you must do so before converting to a Roth IRA.
