Like it or not, taxes are a way of life. They fund great things like roads, libraries and parks, but nobody wants to pay more than they absolutely have to.

Like it or not, taxes are a way of life. They fund great things like roads, libraries, and parks, but nobody wants to pay more than they absolutely have to. At Sage Path, we often get questions like, “How can I balance my tax obligations with my financial goals?” One possible option is a Roth IRA. Roth IRAs are tax-advantaged retirement savings accounts that can be quite useful if you expect your tax obligations will rise as you get older. Because withdrawals from a Roth are tax-free, it's an especially attractive option for high-earning households. Unfortunately, the US tax code prohibits individuals or households from contributing to a Roth IRA if they earn over a certain annual income. But there IS a workaround (creatively known as a “backdoor Roth conversion” among tax and financial professionals). And that's what Jason will cover in today's episode. Dad Cents is a show for family men and women. We're all about family, food, fun, and finance!

Jason will share three learning opportunities to help you teach your kids and grandkids to be patient spenders early on and adopt sound money management skills. What if we told you that the most valuable legacy you can pass on to your kids and grandkids isn't an object, it's not money, but education about effectively managing money? Teaching valuable money skills while kids are young puts them at an advantage. And this is especially true when it comes time to create and live a sustainable lifestyle when they reach adulthood. Without it, any income or inheritance might as well be as good as gone. It's easy for young people to grasp the basics of how money in exchange for goods and services works, and you can do that through simple activities like the ones Jason lays out for you today. But it's just as easy for kids to pick up any bad money habits you have as well. Dad Cents is a show for family men and women. We're all about family, food, fun, and finance!
