Retirement Planning Without the Tax Burden
Retirement Planning Without the Tax Burden
One of the biggest fears retirees face isn’t just running out of money—it’s losing too much of it to taxes. Many retirement accounts are “tax later” plans, which means you’ll pay when you withdraw. The good news? With the right strategy, you can keep more of your money and enjoy retirement with confidence.
The Problem with Traditional Retirement Accounts
Most people save in accounts like a 401(k) or traditional IRA. These accounts are tax-deferred, meaning you don’t pay taxes now—but you will later.
Withdrawals are taxed as ordinary income.
Required minimum distributions (RMDs) can force you to take out money even when you don’t need it.
Rising tax rates could mean a bigger bite out of your retirement income.
Alternative Solutions for a Tax-Smart Retirement
Instead of putting all your savings in “tax later” accounts, consider strategies that give you tax-free or tax-advantaged income:
Indexed Universal Life (IUL): Builds cash value with tax-free access when structured properly.
Roth IRA or Roth Conversions: Pay taxes now, enjoy tax-free withdrawals later.
Annuities with Tax Benefits: Create predictable income while reducing tax exposure.
