Unlocking the Power of Roth IRAs with Lucy Valandra, CFP®

If you’re not sure what a Roth IRA is or why it’s worth considering, read on! A Roth IRA is a special type of individual retirement account that offers unique benefits.
Here’s how it works:
Contribution Limits: If you’re under 50, you can contribute up to $7,000 in 2024 using after-tax dollars. This means you’ve already paid taxes on this money before putting it into the account.
Tax-Free Growth: Your money grows tax-free, including interest, dividends, and capital gains.
Penalty-Free Withdrawals: You can withdraw your contributions anytime without penalties or taxes, making it a flexible savings tool for emergencies or big goals.
No Required Minimum Distributions: Keep your money growing as long as you want, which is great for long-term planning.
Income Limits for 2024:
$161,000 for single filers
$240,000 for married couples filing jointly
If you’re eligible, a Roth IRA can be a fantastic way to save for your future and enjoy tax-free withdrawals in retirement. There are even workarounds for income limits, so if you’re looking for a tax-smart way to save for retirement, a Roth IRA might be just what you need.
