November is Long-Term Care Awareness Month.

Many people assume Medicare will cover long-term care if they ever need it. In reality, Medicare typically doesn’t cover ongoing help with everyday activities, like bathing or dressing.

Depending on your situation, planning ahead may help protect your savings and give your family more options down the road. It’s a conversation that’s much easier to have early.

Here's a question every married couple should be able to answer.

Would your retirement plan still work with just one of you?

Look at what income would look like for each spouse on their own. Check what the tax picture looks like at single rates. Make sure both spouses understand the financial plan. And stress test it against difficult scenarios before you ever need to.

A good retirement plan shouldn't only work while you're both here.

Most people assume that when income goes down taxes go down too. For surviving spouses that assumption often doesn't hold up.

Once you're filing single the tax brackets are much narrower. The 12% bracket ends at $100,800 for a married couple filing jointly. But for a single filer it ends at $50,400.

So a surviving spouse can end up with less income but a higher tax bill. And that gap can grow even larger once required minimum distributions from retirement accounts stack on top of Social Security all within those narrowing single brackets.

This is sometimes called the widow's penalty. And it's one of the strongest reasons to think about Roth conversions and long-term tax planning while both spouses are still here.

Here's something most couples never plan for.

When a spouse dies the surviving spouse doesn't keep both Social Security checks. They keep the larger one. The smaller one goes away. And here's the part that surprises almost everyone. Taxes can actually go up even though income went down. Because now you're filing as single and the single tax brackets are about half as wide as the joint brackets.

Less income. More tax.

This is one of those things that's a lot easier to plan around while both spouses are still here than after.

Most married couples plan for retirement as a team.

But very few plan for what happens when one of them has to do it alone. When a spouse dies the surviving spouse loses a Social Security check, faces a very different tax situation, and suddenly has to manage every financial decision alone.

Nobody wants to think about this. But planning for it now is one of the most important things you can do for the person you leave behind.

In this video, we walk through the four financial changes that happen when one spouse dies and what couples can do about each one now while both spouses are still here.

Retirement planning isn't about predicting the future. It's about being ready for it. 💡

The right plan accounts for what you can control: your income strategy, your tax exposure, your investment approach, and how you protect what you've built. So, when life doesn't go exactly as expected, your retirement still can.

Do you actually know who gets your retirement accounts when you die?

Not who your will says. The IRS doesn't care about your will or estate plan. Your 401(k) and IRA go to whoever is named on the beneficiary form, period. Even an ex-spouse.

Before you roll over your Roth 401(k), two things are worth checking first.

One: have you ever had a Roth IRA? If you have, find out what year that five-year clock started. If you haven't, it may be worth talking with your advisor or tax professional about whether establishing one now makes sense rather than waiting until retirement.

Two: Roth conversions have a separate five-year rule of their own that's different from the rollover rule. Don't mix the two up.

Both of these are a lot easier to sort out before the rollover than after.

Most people assume rolling a Roth 401(k) into a Roth IRA is a clean transfer. The years don't come with you, and that can matter more than most people realize.

Each Roth 401(k) has its own five-year clock. When you roll it into a Roth IRA, those years don't transfer. The Roth IRA's clock is the only one that counts, unless you already had a Roth IRA open before the rollover.

If you didn't, the earnings that land in that Roth IRA may not be tax-free for years. This is one of those things that's a lot easier to plan around before the rollover than after.
