Congress widely acknowledges that individuals often fail to adequately save for their retirement.

In this webinar, we review the investment opportunities for individuals to save for retirement, including IRAs, Roth IRAs, Backdoor Roth IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, and other employer-sponsored retirement plans. 

We will conduct a comprehensive review of these investment vehicles, providing participants with a thorough understanding of their features, benefits, and eligibility criteria. By delving into the intricacies of each option, individuals will be empowered to make informed decisions and devise a personalized retirement savings strategy that aligns with their financial goals.

The topics of Retirement, Eldercare and Post-Mortem Planning present a constantly changing set of rules, tax thresholds and concerns about future legislation. This course will address the many planning challenges and opportunities from the perspective of tax, estate, and public benefit planning that confront individuals as they reach their senior years. This course discusses the issues of concern for an aging population. The need for a well-considered estate plan is addressed, along with some of the post-mortem planning decisions that must be considered. We examine the complexity of the social security system, particularly as it involves the various choices and planning strategies one has in taking the available benefits. The government entitlement program of Medicare is reviewed, particularly with an analysis of what is and is not covered, and how planning may increase one’s chances of securing the benefits of this program. Retirement planning issues are explored, particularly on the distribution planning changes and challenges required by the Secure Acts 2.0.
