Retirement is your time to enjoy the things you postponed during your working years. Many of our clients enjoy being able to travel and indulge in the things they have saved for so diligently.
Sometimes, paying for a long-awaited trip means withdrawing more from your retirement funds. It’s important for you to carefully consider the tax implications of withdrawing more from accounts like IRAs. Keep in mind that increasing your taxable income can increase how much of your social security is taxable as well.
To better understand just how important this consideration is for your retirement plan, watch this clip from the Tax-Saving Strategies in Retirement” online course.
