I find one of the most confusing set of rules for retirees are the three 5 year Roth IRA rules. Often they each are referenced as 'The 5 Year Roth Rule' as if there is only one rule. However, there are three and each carries a different penalty for non-compliance. The worst part about these penalties is that they destroy wealth in your most valuable retirement account : Roth IRA. The confusion around these rules has been compounded in recent years. As recent as 2020, the estate planning rules have changed thus changing one of these rules. In this video, we simplify and explain these rules in layman's terms. We cover: 1. The 5-Year Contribution Rule 2. The 5-Year Conversion Rule 3. The 5-Year Inheritance Rule If you have any questions, please post them in the comments and we will make sure you get the answers you need. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Always remember, "You Don't Need More Money; You Need a Better Plan" ...
