  • 3 Strategies to Pay Roth Conversion Taxes - 495
    Sep 17 2024
    Today on Your Money, Your Wealth® podcast 495, Joe Anderson, CFP® and Big Al Clopine CPA spitball on three different listeners’ strategies for paying the tax on a Roth conversion now, to have lifetime tax-free growth on that money in the future. Should Neo in San Clemente, California convert to Roth at the beginning or end of the year in his plan to make quarterly estimated tax payments on his conversion? Is it a good strategy for Tim in Minnesota to use reimbursements from his health savings account to pay Roth conversion taxes? And what do Joe and Big Al think of Samantha in Northern California’s plan to convert to Roth and pay the tax with her IRA money? Plus, the fellas answer questions from our YouTube and Spotify followers on required minimum distributions from Roth accounts, reasons to put retirement withdrawals in a brokerage account instead of a Roth, choosing pension options, and the difference between commercial annuities and pension annuities. Plus, their thoughts on single premium immediate annuities (SPIA).

  • How to Get Into the Stock Market: Dollar Cost Average or Go All In? - 494
    Sep 10 2024
    TJ in Louisiana has been sitting on the sidelines, but now it’s time to get into the market. Should he dollar cost average, or just go all in? Margaret in California has an idea of selling a stock at a loss and buying a put option on that stock that expires after the 30-day waiting period. Does this work as a tax loss harvesting strategy? When is it worth it for Brian in Charlotte, North Carolina to diversify beyond a basic three-fund portfolio? Should Christine in San Diego convert her variable annuity to a fixed indexed annuity? That’s all today on Your Money, Your Wealth® podcast 494 with Joe Anderson, CFP® and Big Al Clopine, CPA. Plus, how should Dean in Columbus, Georgia invest inherited retirement money? Are Jen and John on track for retirement, and how should they fund their home remodel? Are there any negative consequences for Steve in Pennsylvania if he finds a new financial advisor just a few months after hiring his current advisor? The fellas also talk through how Chris can give money to charity from his required minimum distributions. And finally, Terry calls in with a follow-up question about whether a solo 401(k) is an option to avoid unrelated business income tax (UBIT).
