That means you pay taxes on your contributions now, but your withdrawals are tax-free in retirement. There are also several benefits to inheriting a Roth IRA, as @John with @SecurusFinancial explains to @erinkennedy; the distributions are tax-free, and they won't affect your taxable income. However, with a few exceptions, you'll still have to drain the inherited account within 10 years. If you are inheriting a Roth IRA, here's a quick action plan: 1. Understand your beneficiary type (this will determine your distribution options) 2. Consider your tax situation 3. Invest the money wisely 4. Get professional help As with all inheritances, it's important to know how distributions will affect your taxes and how to best invest that money.

Lagoa Salgada Continues to Hold "Vast Potential," According to Mineral & Financial Investments

Mineral & Financial Investments Ltd (AIM:MAFL) chief executive Jacques Vaillancourt speaks to Thomas Warner from Proactive about the latest news from the Lagoa Salgada Project in Portugal, the recent investment in Luca Mining as well as the performance of Mineral & Financial overall. The company announced the results earlier this week of its initial NI 43-101 Feasibility Study for the Lagoa Salgada VMS Project, based upon an updated Mineral Reserves and Resources Estimate.

Greencoat UK Wind Flourishes in a Robust State

Greencoat UK Wind PLC (LSE:UKW) investment co-manager Stephen Lilly visits the Proactive London studio to speak with Thomas Warner after the renewable infrastructure fund published half year results for the period to 30 June 2023 that revealed a first-half year-on-year dividend hike of 13.5%. Lilly gives a brief overview of how Greencoat has been performing recently, highlighting the £204 million of net cash generated over the six months, backed by 2.1 terawatt hours of production, with net asset value remaining largely flat. Lilly attributed the results to various factors, including future power prices, inflation, and the value of assets acquired by the business. He emphasised that he believes concerns regarding the fund's debt position and inflation are unfounded, as the company's stability and return on investment remained strong. He also highlights the importance of understanding the combination of dividends and reinvestment in achieving a healthy return, an

What Retirement Plan is the Best Option for Me?

Independent Financial Solutions (719) 265-5091 Choosing a retirement plan is a great step toward financial security. There are several types available, but here are the most common: 401(k)s and 403(b)s are plans offered by employers. 401(k)s are offered by for-profit companies, and 403(b)s are offered by public schools and some non-profit organizations. Contributions are deducted from your paycheck, and are often matched by employers. They’re deducted pre-tax, grow tax-deferred and are taxable on withdrawal. Traditional IRAs, or Individual Retirement Accounts, are opened by individuals through an investment firm or bank. They may be tax deductible, grow tax-deferred and you pay tax when you take the money out. A SIMPLE IRA plan is similar to a traditional IRA, but these accounts are set up by a small business owner, and usually permit larger contribution amounts. And lastly, when you open a Roth IRA, you contribute after-tax dollars, the money grows tax-free, and

After his FOX Business interview last week, Eddie received a lot of questions about his comment, “in my opinion, there is nothing anyone can do to stop what has already happened.” There are macroeconomic factors at play that have a tremendous impact on where we go from here.
