Exciting update, everyone! Episode 3 of Simply Wealth is LIVE: Roth IRA's & Conversion Strategies for Tax-Free Growth
Join Cory, Dan, and Tom as they break down Roth IRAs for tax-free growth and liquidity—ideal for young savers, high earners avoiding RMDs, or estate planning. We cover upsides like no RMDs and inheritance benefits, downsides (upfront taxes, irreversibility), and key strategies: Roth conversions for tax hedging, backdoor Roths for those over income limits (e.g., MFJ phase-out at $236K-$246K for 2025), and mega backdoor for self-employed/high-comp folks via solo 401(k)s (up to $60K-$80K+). Watch for pro-rata rule pitfalls and why it's not one-size-fits-all—team up with pros for your unique plan!
