That's according to Henry Ward, Founder and CEO of Carta, a networked enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform for private capital markets.In this episode, Henry joins host Rodney Bolden to reflect on his founder journey and the leadership lessons he's learned along the way. They discuss “founder mode,” how the founder mindset evolves as a company grows, and how to manage the tension between innovation and operational rigor within a company.

Private equity funds typically invest in securities, instruments, and assets that are not, and are not expected to become, publicly traded and therefore may require a substantial length of time to realize a return or fully liquidate. They typically have high management, performance and placement fees which can lower the returns achieved by investors. They are often speculative and include a high degree of risk. Investors can lose all or a substantial amount of their investment. They may be highly illiquid with significant lock-up periods and no secondary market, can engage in leverage and other speculative practices that may increase volatility and the risk of loss, and may be subject to large investment minimums.

This dual doc couple has a very impressive milestone today. They have saved $100,000 towards retirement during residency. They wanted to give themselves more compounding interest time and not wait until they were attendings. This doc also shared about their student loan journey. They met with Andrew at StudentLoanAdvice.com and got a plan in place early. They decided that they did not want to go for PSLF so before they started residency they refinanced their loans. They took a risk to refinance when their loans were at 0% but they locked in sub 3% and are now feeling very good about their decision. Then, for Finance 101 we are talking about plan documents for employer provided retirement accounts.

Allie and Logan talk about some of the tax consequences of trust accounts and whether it is helpful to put your IRA in a trust after you pass.

What if you could use your retirement savings to invest in real estate, start a business, or buy cryptocurrency - all while keeping the tax advantages of your IRA or 401(k)? Tax attorney and entrepreneur Adam Bergman reveals the hidden power of self-directed retirement accounts that most Americans are unaware of. As the founder and CEO of IRA Financial Group, Adam shares how he discovered, by accident, that IRAs can invest in far more than just stocks and bonds—and how he built a $5 billion company helping business owners unlock these opportunities. From the ROBS strategy for funding businesses with retirement funds to the surprising tax advantages that even seasoned professionals may not be aware of, this episode reveals the retirement planning secrets that savvy individuals use to build substantial wealth. 5 Key Takeaways ➤ IRAs can invest in almost anything except three prohibited categories - collectibles like art, life insurance, and transactions that personally benefit you or your family members. ➤ Three ways to fund your business with retirement money: Own less than 50% of the business through a self-directed IRA, borrow up to $50,000 through a 401(k) loan, or use the ROBS (Rollover Business Startup Solution) strategy. ➤ The ROBS strategy enables tax-free, penalty-free access to retirement funds by setting up a C-corporation that adopts a 401(k) plan, which then purchases company stock—completely legal under Section 4970E of the tax code. ➤ Starting retirement savings at 24 vs 34 makes a massive difference - investing just $2,000 annually from age 24-72 at 8.5% returns yields $1.15 million vs. only $498,000 when starting at 34. ➤ Self-directed IRAs cost less than $500 annually to maintain, and the setup process takes just a few hours over a few weeks, giving you complete control over investment decisions. Notable Quotes"I had no idea that you can use an IRA to do alternative assets. I as a tax lawyer... worked at some of the biggest law firms in the world, and I honestly thought that you had to buy stocks and mutual funds, ETFs with your IRA." "The US retirement system is rigged in our favor... it's based off compounded returns, the eighth wonder of the world. Albert Einstein said it." How to Reach Adam BergmanIRA Financial Group Website: /https://www.irafinancial.com/lp/retirement-solutions/ YouTube Channel: IRA Financial (1000+ educational videos) Phone: Free consultations with 100+ tax professionals Resources: Extensive blogs and educational content on self-directed retirement accounts Adam has authored 9 books on retirement planning and continues to educate entrepreneurs on maximizing their retirement strategies through alternative investments.

As we celebrate the 4th of July, I want to explore a topic that doesn't get nearly enough attention—how to withdraw money from different types of retirement accounts. Specifically, we'll look at sequential vs. proportional withdrawals, and how your strategy can impact your taxes, your legacy, and your long-term retirement success. We'll walk through a hypothetical scenario to compare the outcomes, and the good news is—you can run this kind of analysis for yourself using the new Withdrawal Strategy Scenario in the Retirement Budget Calculator.

In this conversation, T.J. van Gerven and Adam discuss the concept of self-directed IRAs, exploring their differences from traditional IRAs, the potential for investing in alternative assets, and the role of custodians. Adam shares insights on the benefits and risks associated with self-directed IRAs, including compliance issues and the importance of education. They also touch on investment strategies, Roth conversions, and the flexibility of various retirement accounts, emphasizing the long-term wealth-building potential of these financial tools. Takeaways   Self-directed IRAs allow investment in alternative assets beyond stocks and ETFs. The term 'self-directed IRA' is not defined in the tax code; it's a marketing term. Investors can use their IRAs to invest in real estate, hedge funds, and cryptocurrencies. There are only three prohibited transactions with IRAs: life insurance, collectibles, and self-dealing. Custodians play a crucial role in managing self-directed IRAs and ensuring compliance. Self-directed IRAs are not more popular due to lack of marketing from large financial institutions. Roth conversions can be a strategic way to manage tax liabilities on investments. Valuation of non-publicly traded assets is important for compliance and reporting purposes. Various types of retirement accounts can be self-directed, including HSAs and solo 401(k)s. Long-term investment strategies and starting early are key to building wealth.    Chapters   00:00 Understanding Self-Directed IRAs 02:53 Exploring Alternative Assets 05:49 The Role of Custodians in Self-Directed IRAs 08:54 The Popularity and Misconceptions of Self-Directed IRAs 11:56 Working with Financial Advisors 14:45 Investment Strategies and Success Stories 17:54 Roth Conversions and Tax Strategies 20:53 Types of Retirement Accounts 23:52 Valuation and Reporting of Private Assets 26:47 Navigating Required Minimum Distributions 29:53 Encouragement for Millennials  

In this episode, I share what I've learned recently about the landscape of postdoc benefits in the US, specifically with respect to health insurance and workplace-based retirement accounts. This discussion of employees and non-employees or fellows may be familiar territory to some of you, but I also know I'm reaching people who have never heard it before. I hope that this episode helps more postdocs access more benefits, but I will not present a single universal solution that can be immediately adopted. Please take what you learn today back to your peers at your institution to converse about what they're doing for their benefits and what may be possible for all of you.

In a recent BlackRock survey of registered voters, more than 75% of retirees said they wished they had saved more money for retirement. And with the recent passage of the SECURE 2.0 Act now in effect, opening up new opportunities for savers, investors are considering how to save and build wealth for the future. Shoring up emergency savings is protective of retirement savings, according to research by The BlackRock Foundation. So how can investors ensure they're pulling all the levers at their disposal to retire on their own terms?Rob Crothers, Head of U.S. Retirement for BlackRock, will discuss the current state of the retirement landscape and help us unpack a toolkit for retirement savers that's been proposed by the Bipartisan Policy Center and how investors and employers can plan for the future.Key moments in this episode:00:00 Introduction: The Importance of Saving for Retirement00:17 Exploring the SECURE 2.0 Act and Retirement Universals02:01 Current Retirement Landscape and Policy Changes04:06 BlackRock's D.C.
