Questions about Roth IRA strategies? Read our FAQs
When should I start contributing to a Roth IRA?
The earlier, the better! More time in the market means more tax-free growth. However, even later in life, Roth IRAs can be a powerful tool for tax-free income.
Should I do a Roth conversion?
Roth conversions can be a great strategy, but timing is critical to avoid unnecessary taxes. We’ll help determine if it’s the right move for you.
Should I contribute monthly or in a lump sum?
Both strategies have benefits. Contributing early in the year maximizes tax-free growth, while monthly contributions smooth out market fluctuations.
Can my Roth IRA be part of my estate plan?
Yes! Roth IRAs pass tax-free to heirs and don’t have RMDs, making them a great wealth transfer tool.
Can I have a Roth IRA and a 401(k)?
Yes! A Roth IRA complements a 401(k) by providing tax-free income in retirement, giving you more flexibility with withdrawals.
