You didn't happen to name your spouse, children or grandchildren beneficiaries of your IRA, 401k, 403b, 457 plan etc.?

THE STORY

Most people are distracted now…

  • January 1, 2020: The US Government passed a new tax act called the SECURE Act.

The act was meant to give the government increased taxes and reduced deficits, not to make the American citizen more secure. If the government needed our money before the pandemic, they really need our money now! One of the largest assets of the American people are their retirement plans, and this pool of money has never been taxed.

The government not only wants more of your assets. They want them quicker.

The SECURE Act will make seniors insecure.

What does that mean to you? Taxes. Taxes. Taxes.

This affects qualified money: IRA, 401K, 403B, 457, and SEPs

Two parts to the SECURE Act every senior needs to know:
  • The Stretch IRA was eliminated
  • ​It extends the RMD age to 72 73-75 over the next 10 years

THE CONSEQUENCES

Consequences of Stretch IRA Elimination

  • ​Higher taxes for children or other beneficiaries
  • ​Biden has promised to raise taxes in wealthier income brackets
  • ​The stock market is unpredictable

Forces larger distributions, which are more taxable

  • 47% of seniors aged 65 will pass away before life expectancy
  • ​70% of people over 65 will need extended care
  • ​90% of couples over 65 will need extended care for one or both members
  • ​Most seniors will scramble for money
