No, Taxes Won't Derail Your FIRE: Here's What You'll Really Pay in Retirement Podcast Description Taxes in retirement have been called a “silent wealth killer” for those pursuing FIRE—but does the data tell a different story? If you're worried about a ticking tax bomb wiping out a huge chunk of your investment portfolio or even delaying early retirement, you won't want to miss this one! Welcome back to the BiggerPockets Money podcast! Today, we're joined by fellow investor and self-proclaimed data nerd Mark Livingstone, who has created a free resource and spreadsheet YOU can use to estimate your tax burden in retirement. For most early retirees, taxes are negligible compared to the amount of income they can withdraw, and Mark will demonstrate this with a step-by-step walkthrough of his powerful FIRE tax tool! Along the way, you'll learn the key differences between marginal and effective tax rates and why people who retire today pay much less tax than in decades prior. You'll also hear about the four income “levers” you can pull in retirement, when income tax and capital gains tax kick in, and how to build the most tax-friendly withdrawal strategy possible! In This Episode We Cover Why taxes in retirement aren't nearly as bad as you probably think A step-by-step walkthrough of Mark's free retirement tax spreadsheet How the United States' progressive income tax system works Marginal and effective tax rates explained (and how they impact your tax burden) The four income “levers” you can pull in retirement (and how each is taxed) How taxes impact the safe withdrawal rate (and why the 4% rule works) And So Much More!

"So teach us to number our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom." - Psalm 90:12 If you're a few years from retirement and your savings aren't quite where you want them, you might feel like you've run out of time. But maybe you don't need a time machine to solve the problem. Today, Matt Bell joins us with some encouraging words about beefing up retirement savings.Matt Bell is the Managing Editor at Sound Mind Investing, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Surprising Power of Working a Little LongerIn 2018, a Stanford study called The Power of Working Longer made a compelling discovery: delaying retirement by just three to six months can have the same impact on retirement readiness as saving an additional 1% of income every year for 30 years.Yes, really.This is largely due to two factors:Higher Social Security Benefits – For every month you delay past full retirement age, your benefit increases by 2/3 of 1% (8% annually). Better Annuity Rates – The older you are when purchasing an annuity, the more monthly income you'll receive for the same investment.But there's a caveat: the study is based on specific assumptions that may not match your financial situation.What the Study Assumes—and Why It MattersThe Stanford study uses a fictional worker named “John” who:Started saving at age 36Saved 6% of income and received a 3% matchRetired at 66 and claimed Social Security immediatelyUsed all savings to buy an inflation-indexed annuityIn reality, your income, savings rate, Social Security timing, and withdrawal strategy may differ widely. Not to mention, indexed annuities like the one in the study are no longer widely available. So while the study provides encouragement, its specifics shouldn't be universally applied.If you can delay claiming Social Security, it can significantly boost your lifelong income. For example, waiting until age 70 instead of 66 could result in a monthly check that's 24% higher. You'd need to live roughly 12 more years to “break even,” but many retirees today are living well into their 80s and beyond.Social Security is essentially a government-backed, inflation-adjusted annuity, making it a powerful foundation for retirement income.More Benefits to Working LongerBeyond Social Security, staying employed offers additional financial and emotional perks:More Contributions – Additional working years allow you to save more and delay withdrawals.Shorter Retirement Span – Fewer retirement years mean your nest egg doesn't have to stretch as far.Health & Community – Work often provides routine, purpose, and social interaction—elements many retirees miss.Working longer isn't just a financial decision—it impacts your time, relationships, and expectations. If you've long looked forward to travel, family time, or volunteering, extending your career might feel like a loss. That's why it's essential to consider both the math and the meaning.Couples should prayerfully approach retirement planning together. Decisions about timing affect both spouses, especially when only one is working. Unequal expectations can lead to tension, so it's essential to:Talk openly about your hopes and concernsUnderstand your financial picture as a teamChoose unity over independence in decision-makingThis is one of the most crucial decisions you'll make as a couple.How Much Do You Really Need?You may have heard that you need 70–80% of your pre-retirement income. That's a good rule of thumb, but it's far better to run the numbers yourself. Some costs (like commuting or saving for retirement) may go down. Others (like healthcare or travel) may go up. The best approach? Create a post-retirement budget based on your unique goals and lifestyle.If you're behind on retirement savings, don't panic—and don't go it alone. Tools on the Social Security website can help you run scenarios based on your age and income. Brokerages like Fidelity or Schwab offer annuity estimators. Most importantly, seek wise counsel and pray through your decisions with your spouse.If you'd like to read the full article from Sound Mind Investing that we discussed during this episode, read Matt's article titled Retirement Preparedness—What a Difference a Little Time Can Make at SoundMindInvesting.com. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I now have the money from my tax return to pay my property taxes, due in two installments—one in May and one six months later. Should I go ahead and pay it all now since I have the funds, or is there a wise short-term investment I could consider in the meantime?Is there a reliable resource or organization that can provide information on charities that are requesting donations, such as groups like America Cares, CARE, or Mercy Ships?What are your thoughts on the cryptocurrency XRP?

We all know the Roth IRA is a powerful tool for setting our kids up financially, especially when they're earning early and you can stash away a few thousand dollars for decades of tax-free growth.

In this episode, we explore how to leverage this window to give your child a tax-free healthcare fund that could quietly grow into hundreds of thousands by retirement.

Building a retirement income strategy involves more than selecting dividend-paying stocks. A focus on total return — which includes both growth and income — can offer a more comprehensive approach for long-term planning.• Relying solely on dividend-paying stocks may reduce portfolio diversification and growth potential• Total return (income + growth) can provide a broader view of long-term investment outcomes• Asset location strategies may improve tax efficiency depending on the type of account• Bond ladders with staggered maturities can help create more consistent income over time• Annuities can provide structured income, though they may have limitations such as fees or inflation sensitivity• The most effective strategy is one that aligns with your goals, risk tolerance, and understanding• Be cautious with complex products — understanding fees, liquidity restrictions, and structure is essentialAdvisory services are offered through Root Financial, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.'” - Matthew 25:40Some exciting things are happening that will give you more ways to help “the least of these” in God's Kingdom. Brian Holtz joins us today with details about how we can all have the greatest impact in helping those in need.Brian Holtz is the CEO of Compass Financial Ministry and the author of Financial Discipleship for Families: Intentionally Raising Faithful Children.A Call to Reach the MarginsWhen it comes to helping families in financial crisis, good intentions aren't always enough. Real transformation requires more than quick fixes—it takes relationships, discipleship, and time. That's the heart behind Making Ends Meet, a small group video study from Compass Financial Ministry designed to equip churches and communities to walk with struggling families toward lasting financial health.Most financial ministries have historically focused on middle—and upper-income families, but Compass felt God pushing them to address those with no financial margin at all—those who aren't just managing poorly but truly don't have enough income to meet basic needs.In response, Compass partnered with ministries that specialize in serving low-income families to learn the unique challenges these households face, many of which go far beyond budgeting.Why Money Alone Isn't EnoughSimply giving money doesn't create lasting change. It may provide short-term relief, but study after study shows that injecting money into poverty doesn't solve the deeper problem.That's not a reason to stop giving—it's a reason to start giving differently.Jesus didn't just heal people and walk away. He invited them to follow Him. That's the model we need to follow—combining financial help with relational investment.When someone is experiencing financial hardship, it's often not just a matter of dollars and cents—it's about identity, family history, and deeply ingrained beliefs. That's why true transformation requires more than a checkbook; it requires presence.When we invest relationally, we gain credibility. That allows us to speak into someone's life in a way that supports their heart and habits.Understanding the Emotional BarriersOne of the surprising lessons Compass learned during the development of Making Ends Meet is how emotional the journey out of poverty can be.Many poor communities are deeply interdependent. They share what they have and support each other in powerful ways, like the early church in Acts.But when someone begins to move toward financial stability, it can create fear: Will I lose my community if I start to thrive? Will I be accepted if I have more than those around me?This anxiety can be paralyzing, which is why patience and prayer are so critical. These are generational challenges. They won't be overcome overnight, but change is possible with consistent love and support.Learn More and Get InvolvedThe beauty of Making Ends Meet is its simplicity. You don't need to be a financial expert to use it. If you care about people and are willing to walk with them, the study provides a step-by-step framework to break cycles of poverty and help families build a new mindset.This is for anyone already serving in their community through their church, a shelter, or a mentoring ministry. Compass provides the tools to make that investment more effective.To explore how you or your church can use Making Ends Meet, visit CompassFinancialMinistry.org. Whether you're looking to lead a group or come alongside a struggling neighbor, this resource is designed to equip you to serve with compassion and wisdom.Helping others financially isn't just about generosity—it's about discipleship. When we combine truth, love, and time, God can do amazing things.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:How do I get banks to produce my bank statements further back than the seven-year period usually required to keep records? I need bank statements from 10-15 years ago because I believe fraud or theft has occurred.My boyfriend is 62 and is about to receive profit-sharing money in two weeks after he took an early retirement from his job.

Brian, Alex, and our callers dig into one of the most overlooked but urgent problems in personal finance: our retirement system is broken—and most people don't even realize it. The conversation opens with an honest critique of the current mess of savings vehicles: 401(k)s, SIMPLEs, SEPs, IRAs, Roths—all with different rules, limits, and levels of access. The hosts explain why these inconsistencies create a fundamental inequality: if you're self-employed, you can stash away $70K pre-tax, but if you're a W-2 employee? You're capped at less than half that. It's a system built with good intentions that's now a patchwork of inefficiency, confusion, and lopsided opportunity. The episode features a practical case study from a young entrepreneur trying to offer retirement benefits to a small team with limited resources. Alex breaks down the real math behind startup retirement plans and offers realistic paths forward. They also take a call from a college student who saved $10K and wants to invest it wisely—an unexpected reminder that real financial planning starts early, and opportunity favors the intentional.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Alex Lundgren ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

As you save for retirement, it's not just about having a retirement account, it's about having the right types of accounts and knowing how to use them most effectively. So today's video will break down the four most important retirement accounts you should consider having and the strategies you can implement to get the amount of income in the most tax efficient way. Here's some of what we discuss in this episode:

Informed Decisions Podcast | Episode 331 In this insightful episode, Paddy engages with Dr. Gregg Lunceford - retirement researcher, Certified Financial Planner®, and author of Exit from Work: What Will the New You Look Like? -to explore the evolving concept of retirement. Gregg discusses the emotional and psychological aspects of transitioning from traditional employment, emphasising the importance of planning for a fulfilling "third age" of life. He offers valuable perspectives for those in Ireland contemplating retirement or a career pivot, highlighting strategies to navigate this significant life change beyond mere financial considerations.   Key Takeaways Retirement is a transition, not a destination Gregg emphasises that retirement today is less about stopping work and more about reshaping purpose and lifestyle in your later years. Identity and purpose need planning too Many retirees struggle not financially, but psychologically. Planning for how you'll stay engaged, socially connected, and purposeful is just as crucial as financial readiness. Partial retirement is rising Gregg discusses the growing trend of phased retirement and encore careers, where individuals continue to contribute professionally in more flexible, meaningful ways. Ireland's demographic shift mirrors global trends The Irish workforce is aging, and like in the US, people are living longer and working differently. Gregg's insights help contextualise these changes locally. Retirement success is holistic True retirement readiness includes emotional well-being, social networks, mental stimulation, and health - not just a pension fund or lump sum I hope it helps!   Gregg's book - EXIT FROM WORK: What Will The New You Look Like? eBook : Lunceford, Gregg: Amazon.co.uk: Books Gregg's book recommendation - Loaded: Money, Psychology, and How to Get Ahead without Leaving Your Values Behind  Disclaimer
