Tax Deferred to Tax Free: Navigating Taxes in Retirement - Replay

Common Sense Financial Podcast

In this milestone 100th episode of the Common Sense Financial Podcast, host Brian Skrobonja delves into the critical topic of managing taxes in retirement. The episode focuses on strategies for minimizing tax liabilities, especially for retirees with tax-deferred accounts facing potential hefty tax bills. Brian emphasizes the importance of sustainable income creation during retirement and the role of tax optimization in this process. Most people envision their retirement to be built from predominantly tax-free income, but after many years of deferring taxes, retirees are facing a sizable tax bill on distributions taken from their retirement accounts that could be a third or more of what has been accumulated. When you're saving for retirement, growth of your assets is the priority. But many people don't realize that once they retire that's no longer true. The priority is actually creating sustainable income to support you through retirement while minimizing taxes. A common issue I've seen is future retirees knowing they will owe taxes on their deferred accounts, but not realizing the extent of the problem since the rules change once they retire. Many retirees we work with tend to have the same income goals in retirement, yet with fewer deductions. They no longer have children or mortgage interest to help them offset their tax burdens, which makes the situation more complex. Delaying distributions isn't an option either. Required Minimum Distributions will eventually force your hand. There are two tax problems facing retirees: taxes you will have to contend with today, and taxes that you will have to contend with in the future. With the national deficit continuing to rise, do you expect tax rates to go down in the future or go up? The most likely answer is that tax rates are on the rise, so we should be planning accordingly. There are two possibilities to help minimize the level at which you participate in paying your fair share towards the government's future revenue increases. You can either complete a Roth conversion or through tax deferred withdrawals contribute to an overfunded permanent life insurance policy. Making the decision of which strategy to implement is the easy part. The trick really is completing this process with minimal tax liabilities, which requires specialized knowledge. The progressive nature of the code makes understanding your tax burden complicated and miscalculating this could result in having a larger tax liability than anticipated. Depending on your income level, a taxable distribution can subject your Social Security to additional taxes. This is a separate calculation from the income tax brackets and uses a two step process to determine how much of your social security will be subject to taxation. This is important to know because a taxable distribution may not only push you into a higher income tax bracket, but it could trigger additional taxes on your social security, which could result in a higher effective rate. You should also be aware of the impact a taxable distribution can have on Medicare premiums. The impact of any possible premium increase is typically delayed by two years. This is one of those things that often comes as a surprise when people make decisions about distributions. The antidote to taxable income is deductions, credits and losses which can help reduce the net income subject to tax. There are a few options that can help offset the burden of taxes and make the transition from tax-deferred to tax-free easier, but they don't work for everyone, which is why we recommend working with a professional. The first thing is a donor advised fund or DAF. This allows you to contribute future charitable donations into a fund that you control when distributions are made that can also receive the tax benefit of the donation in the year you make the contribution into the fund. By making multiple years of donations in a single year into that fund, you have the potential of helping offset a taxable distribution from your retirement account in that year. The second is a Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT), where you can contribute future charitable donations into the trust and receive the tax benefit of the donation in the year you make the contribution. You can also receive income from the trust while you're living within IRS limits. A CRT is a more complex arrangement than a DAF with many options and requires an attorney to draft the trust. The third is a qualified charitable donation or QCD, which allows for anyone over the age of 70 and a half to make a direct donation from a qualified account to a charity. The fourth is something known as IDCs, or intangible drilling costs, which allows accredited investors to participate in the drilling expenses of an oil and gas company that could provide reportable tax losses that can help offset all forms of income, as well as the potential for cash flow back to the investor once the wells are operational.     Mentioned in this episode: BrianSkrobonja.com SkrobonjaFinancial.com Common Sense Financial Podcast on YouTube  Common Sense Financial Podcast on Spotify Brian's article - From Tax-Deferred to Tax-Free: Navigating Taxes in Retirement   References for this episode: https://www.usdebtclock.org/ https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-provides-tax-inflation-adjustments-for-tax-year-2024 https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-provides-tax-inflation-adjustments-for-tax-year-2024 https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/retirement/planner/taxes.html https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/medicare/medicare-premiums.html#anchor5 https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/charitable-organizations/charitable-contribution-deductions https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/charitable-remainder-trusts https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/qualified-charitable-distributions-allow-eligible-ira-owners-up-to-100000-in-tax-free-gifts-to-charity https://www.investopedia.com/terms/i/intangible-drilling-costs.asp https://www.crfb.org/blogs/tax-break-down-intangible-drilling-costs     Securities offered only by duly registered individuals through Madison Avenue Securities, LLC.

Donor-advised funds (DAFs) are growing rapidly, presenting both challenges and opportunities for nonprofits. While they offer donors tax advantages, investment growth, and simplified giving, they also create barriers between nonprofits and the donors themselves. To effectively engage with DAF donors, nonprofits must proactively promote DAF giving options, retrain gift officers to discuss them, and build relationships with financial advisors and community foundations. By embracing DAFs and integrating them into fundraising strategies, organizations can strengthen donor relationships and unlock new philanthropic potential. The key is adapting to this shifting landscape rather than resisting it.

Today, I'm joined by Matt Eldridge, Executive Director of Realize Impact, on using Donor Advised Funds to innovate impact investing.Impact investing is often perceived as complex, requiring a balance between financial returns and social good.Realize Impact eliminates these barriers, providing a streamlined process that enables individuals, foundations, and donor-advised funds (DAFs) to invest in high-impact ventures while maintaining financial sustainability.How It WorksImpact investing through Realize Impact is facilitated via the Philanthropic Investment Grant (PHIG)—a simple and effective way to direct capital toward high-impact ventures.By recommending an investment and providing matching capital, donors can amplify their contributions while supporting meaningful change.Realize Impact simplifies impact investing into three steps:Grant Recommendation – Investors recommend an impact investment through a grant from a DAF, foundation, or personal funds.Due Diligence & Investment – Realize Impact conducts research, reviews terms, and executes the investment in debt, equity, or revenue-based funding.Returns & Reinvestment – 99% of the investment returns are donated back to the investor's recommended DAF, foundation, or nonprofit for reinvestment.This model allows investors to support impactful projects without the complexities of direct investment management.What is a Donor Advised Fund?A Donor Advised Fund is a philanthropic giving vehicle that allows donors to contribute funds, receive immediate tax benefits, and then recommend grants to eligible charities over time.Think of it as a charitable savings account, where individuals or families set aside funds dedicated to philanthropic purposes.These funds are managed by sponsoring organizations, such as community foundations, universities, or specialized charitable organizations, which administer the DAF on behalf of the donor.Unlocking Capital for Global SolutionsSignificant capital remains idle in donor-advised funds and foundations. Realize Impact mobilizes these funds into ventures addressing key global challenges such as:Climate change – Investing in renewable energy and sustainable business models.Economic empowerment – Supporting underrepresented entrepreneurs with access to capital.Social equity – Financing housing, education, and healthcare initiatives.By actively deploying philanthropic capital, Realize Impact maximizes both financial and social returns.Transparent Fee StructureRealize Impact offers a straightforward, affordable pricing model:$500 flat fee for investments of $10,000 or more.No fee for investments under $10,000 (though returns are not re-donated).This ensures accessibility while maintaining financial sustainability.Redefining Impact InvestingContrary to the belief that impact investing sacrifices returns, Realize Impact proves that financial and social benefits can align.By reinvesting returns into donor-advised funds and nonprofits, the organization amplifies the impact of every dollar. ----------------------------------------Thrive in the Impact Economy.Join 20k+.

By allowing users to set aside money for charitable causes proactively, Daffy makes it easier for people to meet their philanthropic goals without the usual stress and guilt associated with last minute charitable contributions. The conversation also touches on the emotional connections people have with their charitable activities, emphasizing how understanding these human insights can considerably improve product design and user experience. Adam's broader vision for Daffy extends beyond a simple donation platform. He sees it as a communal space where individuals can connect, inspire each other, and amplify their collective impact.For anyone interested in the intersection of technology, personal finance, and philanthropy, this episode offers a rich exploration of how modern solutions can make giving both simpler and more meaningful.—Guest Quote“ 60M [American] households give to charity every year.

In this episode of the First Day Podcast, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D., speaks with Elaine Martyn, Senior Vice President, Private Donor Group, of Fidelity Charitable, to explore the role of donor-advised funds (DAFs) in modern philanthropy. Fidelity Charitable, the largest recipient of charitable donations in the United States, administers DAFs as a tool for strategic giving. Elaine explains how DAFs operate as “charitable investment accounts,” allowing donors to contribute assets, receive immediate tax benefits, and distribute grants to nonprofits over time, fostering a thoughtful and impactful approach to philanthropy. A key topic in the discussion is the flexibility and accessibility of DAFs. Elaine highlights Fidelity's efforts to democratize philanthropy by setting the entry point to open a DAF at zero dollars, with grants starting at just $50. This model appeals to a wide range of donors—from first-generation wealth earners to established philanthropists. Donors use DAFs to align their giving with personal values, support causes like education and healthcare, and involve their families in creating a legacy of generosity. On average, Fidelity Charitable donors give 23% of their DAF assets annually, surpassing the minimum 5% distribution required of private foundations. Elaine addresses common criticisms of DAFs, such as concerns that they act as "parking lots" for funds. She counters with data showing that DAFs disburse a higher proportion of funds than private foundations and often prioritize multi-year and unrestricted funding—key priorities for nonprofits. The conversation also touches on how nonprofits can engage DAF donors effectively by fostering relationships and providing clear avenues for giving, such as highlighting DAF options on their websites and offering electronic fund transfer systems for seamless transactions. The episode concludes with practical advice for fundraisers on leveraging DAFs to benefit their organizations. Elaine emphasizes the importance of building donor relationships over focusing on DAF host organizations like Fidelity. She encourages nonprofits to educate themselves about DAFs and consider them as a growing segment of philanthropic giving. Listeners are invited to explore resources from The Fundraising School, including courses and webinars, to deepen their understanding of DAFs and other fundraising strategies.

Retirement, a phase many of us anticipate for a long time, comes with its own set of financial intricacies. Specifically, how do you effectively withdraw funds from your savings to ensure a comfortable, sustainable, and tax-efficient lifestyle?  A well-crafted retirement blueprint is essential. This plan should outline your long-term goals and the steps needed to achieve them. More importantly, your financial plan should be flexible enough to accommodate life's unexpected expenses, such as healthcare costs or home repairs. Revisiting and updating your blueprint annually—or when significant life changes occur—can help ensure you stay on track. In this episode, we're sharing the essential steps to develop a retirement withdrawal plan that caters to your needs. We dig into which accounts to draw from, how to minimize taxes, and how to manage unexpected expenses.
