    Look up Mega-Back-Door ROTH. Business owners can contribute about $59,000 annually, post-tax.
    A defined Benefit Pension Plan can allow a business owner to contribute up to $300,000 annually, pre-tax.

    Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got to talking about investment and money. I started investing with $150k and in the first 2 months, my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and get more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.

      Hi. I’ve been forced to find additional sources of income as I got retrenched. I barely have time to continue trading and watch my investments since I had my second child. Do you think I should take a break for a while from the market and focus on other things or return whenever I have free time or is it a continuous process? Thanks

    Mr Dave - You are converting company match to Roth because 1. you might not plan to retire or 2. you have good wealth built you want hassle to investment for kids or 3. avoid RMD hassles. But for many middle class Americans thats not a wise advise to share. Once they retire they could withdraw at lower tax rates because one will have not much income and they will be in lower tax brackets, it is wiser to convert then.

This is opposite from what I thought a ROTH IRA would be and they said cause it is an Inherited Roth IRA you don't get the same benefit as the original investor, and you have to take RMD on the Roth.

      Instead of 'always', would suggest 'often'.
      If you expect your tax bracket to be lower in retirement, or if you have a substantial amount in Trad IRA that would need to pay conversion on using backdoor strategy, would be two situations it may not be.
      And more generally, following diversification principles, including tax diversification, can lead to better outcomes. Ex: In retirement pull first $xx,000 up to a then-current low-bracket threshold from a Traditional, then pull from ROTH any cash flow needs above that break, would be better outcome than paying high-rate now on 100% of those monies. imho prob good to have at least some chunk in traditional IRA, unless your income streams would reliably put you in top tax bracket through retirement, in which case you probably arent directly making these decisions anyway, lol.

    The one thing is to be careful about with backdoor Roth is doing conversations when there are other existing rollover IRAs. If you have these and do a non-deductible IRA contribution, it will convert part of the rollover IRA which gets taxed. You cannot specify which IRA contributions get converted, it just takes it pro rata out of whole between rollover and non-deductible IRA.

      You are incorrect. You can't CONTRIBUTE directly to a Roth IRA, but you can certainly own one. Instead you open a traditional IRA account and a Roth one, then you contribute non-deductible contribution into the Traditional IRA account. Wait a day, then transfer it (roll it over) to the Roth IRA account for free since its after tax money and you got no tax benefit for making the contribution. If you own your own business there is a much bigger opening to contribute $60,000+ to a Roth IRA regardless of income limits because you as the business owner pay the money to an after tax 401(k) to the max and then you set up the 401k plan to allow in service transfers and then transfer the money to a Roth.

      I don’t think you understand how a Roth IRA conversation works. You are not avoiding taxes it’s not a service. You are simply contributing after tax dollars” money you were taxed on that’s limited to 8k a year. “Not much money” to contribute in an account that average joes can pay into because it’s more tax efficient. You are still paying taxes on that 8k a year because it was income. It’s not wrong for someone to contribute to a Roth because they have a higher income. It’s literally in the IRS tax code.

    • @michaelrudolph7003
      @michaelrudolph7003 Рік тому

      It's the same money regardless of the vehicle its put in. What you get to keep of what is already yours is determined by which one you use. How is that "paying for services you use"? One way the government steals more from you than the other, who would willingly take less so the government could waste more of their hard earned dollars? The government is the least effective way of providing anything to anyone especially when the resources can only be gained by force in the first place. Is it comforting to know that whatever you think the government spends money on that is worthwhile was obtained by shaking people down by threat of having their freedoms taken away? How can that possibly be justified morally? If someone commits an armed robbery against you in order to throw 80% in a toilet and patch one pothole, is that you being treated fairly? Should you be grateful and your life could have been ended in order to accomplish that? Obviously not, and that's the entire tax and spend system. That's how it works. No one would give them a dime if they couldn't be forced to pay, come on!
