🤔 When might a Roth conversion NOT make sense?

Timing matters! Converting during your peak earning years could mean a higher tax bill, while using converted funds to pay taxes before age 59½ could trigger an additional 10% penalty.

💡 Roth conversions aren't just about if you should convert, but when it makes the most financial sense.

Having multiple retirement accounts is one thing. Getting them to work together is another.

Your 401(k), Traditional IRA, Roth IRA, and taxable savings can each play a different role in retirement. And the order in which you save, invest, and eventually withdraw from those accounts can affect taxes, future growth, and how long your savings may last.

The goal? A coordinated strategy that looks at the bigger picture, including income needs, investments, taxes, risk tolerance, and long-term goals.

You retired. The paycheck stopped. But your Medicare premium might still be priced like you're working.

Your premium is set using an older tax return, not what you're bringing in today. So the year your income drops can be the year your premium doesn't.

Here's what a lot of new retirees never hear: when a major life change like retirement lowers your income, you can ask for your premium to be reviewed using your more recent numbers. If it's approved, what you pay could come down.

A little paperwork now could mean more money staying where it belongs, funding the life you actually retired to live.

Did anyone mention this to you when you retired?

Retiring at 62 sounds like freedom. Then the insurance bill shows up.

The years before 65 are the most expensive years to buy your own coverage. For a married couple paying their own way, it can be one of the biggest bills in the budget.

That does not mean you have to work until 65. It means the gap has to be in the plan before you turn in your badge, not after.

Retire early or work for the coverage? There is no wrong answer. There is only an unplanned one.

Richon Planning can help you run the numbers before you decide.

"Someday" starts today.

There can be a unique window for Roth conversions between retirement and RMD age. ⏳

With earned income potentially lower during these years, some retirees may have an opportunity to convert pre-tax retirement savings at a more favorable tax rate before required minimum distributions begin.

The key is determining how much to convert and when based on the bigger retirement and tax picture.

Investor sentiment may say one thing, but investor behavior can tell a different story. 📊

As attention turns toward the Fed’s next meeting, questions around interest rates, inflation, and the upcoming election are back in focus. But rate decisions don’t always show up in everyday finances immediately, and markets can move long before the full impact is felt.

That’s why it’s important to keep short-term headlines in perspective and stay focused on a financial strategy built to account for changing markets, interest rates, and economic conditions along the way.

This or that: convert to Roth now, or leave it alone and deal with required withdrawals later?

Honestly, it may not be a this or that at all. Taxes are pay me now or pay me later. They're coming due at some point either way.

A conversion could bump your Medicare premiums for a stretch. But if it helps you avoid bigger tax bills and premium hikes later in retirement, a year or two of planned conversions might be worth it.

The key is running the math before you make the move. What does the conversion cost you today, and what could it save you over the rest of retirement? That answer looks different for everyone.
