IRAs are more important than ever in creating a strategic financial plan because that is where Americans save for retirement. After retiring, assets in 401(k) accounts can be managed by you in IRAs. For income tax purposes, they are treated the same as 401(k), 403(b) and other federally-qualified retirement accounts. They grow tax-free only until you withdraw money and withdrawals are taxed at your ordinary income tax rate. However, Roth IRAs are totally tax-free. Even withdrawals are tax-free. Converting a 401(k) to an IRA, converting a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA, and planning how your IRA accounts will be distributed to loved ones or charity upon your demise requires understanding the federal laws on qualified retirement accounts and knowledge of financial economics. The tax advantage of Roth IRAs must be calculated based on your current income, life expectancy, and other factors, and individuals must weight the cost of paying taxes on withdrawal from a traditional IRA or 401(k) to place assets in a Roth IRA and get tax-free income for life as well as estate tax benefits to heirs.
