Fortunately, I had a college economics teacher that taught me a lesson at 18. That lesson was: for every huge, frivoluos purchase you make, you need to have an investment double it's worth, this doesn't necessarily mean you should always invest when you make a purchase, it simply means living within your means. Varied sources of income is wise and especially like i said, living within your means. Whenever you're about to make a huge, dumb purchase that doesn't add value think about taxes and how you get your income. I made $272k combined net last year and paid no Federal taxes.

It is recommended to save at least 15% of your income in a 401k account. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) account can help ensure you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can benefit from compound interest and potentially increase your retirement savings over time. I don't think I could retire with less than $3 million in income-producing investments, and I'm not talking about a 401k, but maybe at least $2 million. I plan to work until I'm at least 50. I have already achieved 60% of my goal.

1. Enough is enough. Let your money does something good. Count your blessings everyday. 2. Keep it simple. I would do conversion every year after filling tax. Make sure the amount converted will not put myself on the higher tax bracket that you can’t afford next year. Make sure the tax is affordable and I still able to contribute to Roth IRA at the same time. 3. Accelerates the Roth conversion after retirement, before you reach 72. It can reduce your RMD. This strategy works for most middle class couples with good spending habits. Before you know it, you are (or close to becoming) Roth millionaire🎉😊.

Great content.

I started at 35 and I wish I had stated earlier. I have investment accounts set up for my kids to start before they are 10, and have been explaining and showing them compound interest calculators. When i have the disposable income I will aim to match every dollar they put in a Roth in lieu of inheritance. There is no replacement for time in time value of money.

i bet that would be so easy to do

When your over the income limits just check with your employer 401k custodian and request in plan distributions. If thats available, contribute to after tax and immediately convert to roth within ypur 401k. Keep it simple

This is a good strategy to follow, but the question that always comes to my mind. They always tell you that your retirement fund should be 10x from your income at your current age. But when you reach a certain age like 70 your activity and is not the same way as you are 50. As well as your expenses is more cheaper because you don’t need a lot of items, you don’t travel, you don’t pay debt, mortgage so you have plenty of money, but what can you do if you can’t enjoy it while you can.

❤this! Thank you Mark!

Am I missing something- The limit on the Roth IRA is 7000 or 7500 depending on age. If there is more than one Roth vehicle the total of all sources is still only 7500 What am I missing.?

Do you have a video on converting an existing traditional IRA into a Roth ? And can you do it without any penalties ? Perhaps another " backdoor" strategy ?

If you put $60k+ into ROTHs, you'll have to come up with another $15k+/- for taxes in that year..

Hey are these trusts express?

It's a great theory and you're going to need those outsize ROI's because that LLC is a corporation that has to be registered in a state for ~$150/yr. every year and it needs to file a tax return every year with bookkeeping by a CPA for another $1200/yr. And if you want to protect your assets in the LLC from creditors it's going to have to be registered in Wyoming according to a different legal expert on KZread. And if your rental property is not in the same state as the LLC then you probably have to file a foreign corporate registration in the state your rental is in every year. If it's in another state unless you want to run over there every time the toilet clogs then you have to pay a property management company for another fee. And if you ever want to do anything with the LLC like buy something or sell something you're going to have to pay the lawyer to get it done correctly. And if you forget how all of this is supposed to work (and you will) that's another conversation with the attorney.

What you are saying is not very accurate. You need more information. For instance, an LLC for an IRA works differently than an LLC for a regular business. It doesn't need to file a tax return unless it's income is above a certain amount. And you don't need to hire a lawyer to buy assets with your IRA/LLC. You buy it yourself as the manager of the LLC, with checkbook control. I just started funding my self-directed Roth IRA, and I'm getting the KKOS lawyers to help me set up the LLC so that I can start buying assets. I attended a two-day class from Mark Kohler and Self Directed IRA. It seems like you have an excuse for every solution.

My question is, since I'm still working, not sure its a great idea to convert any of it over to the Roth 401(k) side since I'll be paying the tax now on my current income which is fairly high as I am 56 and have had the plan since 1990.
