IRA – Individual Retirement Accounts
Retirement Options
The traditional IRA has both advantages and disadvantages. Determining the right IRA for you and your family members is often dependent on a number of influential factors. There is no one-size fits all solution. Here are some things taken into consideration when determining whether or not you wish to start a traditional vs. a Roth IRA.
- Income level
- Age and years to retirement
- Tax considerations and tax benefits
- Distribution penalties and implications
While a Roth IRA is often thought of as more advantageous than a traditional IRA, there are certainly instances where rolling over your retirement funds to a Roth may not make sense.
Roth IRAs have certain restrictions and limitations just like traditional IRAs including annual caps on contributions and income limitations. For high income individuals where a Roth IRA may be out of your reach, you may want to consider rolling over to a Roth from a traditional IRA. When considering the advantages of a Roth IRA, you also need to pay close attention to costs, including:
- Tax implications
- Rollover fees
- Income levels
- Distribution expectations
Unlike standard IRAs, Self-Directed accounts are structured in such a way that you have more control over what happens with the funds within your account. That is, you’ll be more free to invest in things like:
- Real estate
- Tax liens
- Foreign exchange trading
- Precious metals
- Private companies
Gaining checkbook access to your personal IRA LLC means you now have an expanded ability over what you can invest in.
