    9 Answers to Boost Tax-Free Roth Retirement Income - 507
    Dec 10 2024
    Joe Anderson, CFP® and Big Al Clopine, CPA spitball on paying the tax on your Roth conversions on Your Money, Your Wealth® podcast number 507. If you take the money out of your retirement account, what does Joe mean that you’ll be “paying the tax to pay the tax to pay the tax”? Can you pay it from the Roth account itself, or from your monthly pension tax withholding? Are the fellas wrong on this whole topic altogether? They also spitball on withdrawing Roth 401(k) contributions that were rolled to an IRA, those infamous 5-year rules for withdrawals from Roth accounts, when to do Roth conversions, saving to tax-deferred, taxable, or tax-free accounts, and how long-term capital gains taxes fit into the picture. Plus, consolidating individual stock investments and the fate of the home office deduction, and what Joe thinks about the Apple Podcasts reviewer that says he’s checked out.
