Episode 111: Early Distributions from Qualified Retirement Plans - The Rule of 55 in Tenth of an Hour

Generally, if you receive a distribution from an IRA or qualified retirement plan prior to reaching age 59 1/2, you pay a 10% penalty tax (in addition to the ordinary income tax) on the distribution. However, if you retire on or after reaching age 55, you may be able to receive penalty-free distributions from your employer's qualified retirement plan (such as an employer-sponsored 401(k), 403(a), or 403(b).

Feel rest assured that your legacy remains intact and is handed down to the right people after you pass. Important Points: 0:04 "Some of this seems logical but we're seeing these mistakes over and over again like for example: some of you have IRAs or 401(k)s where you don't even have a beneficiary form on file" 0:26 "How about if it's an outdated form? You have your prior spouse on there...guess what? That spouse is going to receive your IRA or 401(k) unless you change the beneficiary statement" 1:36 "Here's the biggest one - naming the trust as the beneficiary.

Which Is the Best Option for You: Roth 401k or Traditional 401k?

When saving money through your job’s retirement plan , you often get to choose between Roth 401(k) vs. traditional 401(k) contributions. So, which is best? The choice comes down to when you want to pay taxes and other factors. - With Roth 401(k) contributions, you pay tax on all of your income today, but you ideally get tax-free income in retirement. For that to work, you need to satisfy specific IRS rules. - With traditional pre-tax 401(k), you reduce your income by the amount you contribute to the plan. That helps you save on taxes this year, and it might make it easier to save money in your plan. 🌞 Subscribe to this channel (it's free): Get free retirement planning resources: 🔑 9 Keys to Retirement Planning 🐢 6 Safest Investments Note that this applies to other types of plans as well.

Is My Roth Conversion Strategy More Accurate: My Personal Opinion or My Financial Advisor's? - I YMYW Podcast

"I have a difference of opinion with our financial advisor as it relates to Roth conversions that I would like to get your perspective on. Our retirement assets include $1.7M in traditional IRAs, $220K in a Roth IRA, $81K in an HSA and $865K in taxable brokerage accounts and cash. Our investments are mostly balanced between stock and bond index funds, with a cash reserve to cover 2-3 years living expenses. I collect a pension from my former employer of $62K/year. We are deferring our Social Security until age 70 at which time we expect to get around $78K/year. That plus a deferred fixed annuity should give us around $150K/year of lifetime income by age 70. I want to draw down the traditional IRAs during our “gap” years and pay the taxes now at the current historically low rates, maxing out the 22% bracket each year (no state income tax in Florida). This amounts to about $150K of traditional IRA distributions each year. I am allocating $50K of the $150K of IRA withdrawals

The distribution options for inherited IRAs can vary, and one of the options available is to receive the funds as a lump sum. In this article, we will discuss what it means to inherit an IRA lump sum and the key factors to consider when making this decision. First and foremost, let's clarify what an IRA is.

Avoiding Mistakes When Rolling Over an IRA

(573) 874-3888 If you’re changing jobs or retiring, it’s important to know the rules regarding moving funds from your employer sponsored retirement plan. The wrong move could cost you in income taxes and early withdrawal penalties. There are two basic ways to move retirement plan assets from one retirement plan into another with no tax consequence. With a direct rollover your financial institution or plan directly transfers the payment to another plan or IRA; no taxes are withheld and your account continues to grow tax-deferred. With an indirect rollover, a check is made payable to you. You have 60 days to deposit it into a Rollover IRA - but indirect rollovers are subject to 20% withholding. For example, if you had $10,000 eligible to rollover, your employer would withhold $2000 and you’d get a check for $8,000. You’ll get the $2000 that was withheld back when you file a tax return, either as a refund or a credit toward any tax owed. However, in 60 days you st
