In this episode, you are treated to a deep dive into the complexities of retirement planning. This episode is especially critical for those who are nearing the final stretch of their careers and looking to maximize their retirement contributions over the last decade.

Dave methodically breaks down the array of retirement accounts available, from traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs to 401Ks and the increasingly popular Solo 401Ks. The episode sheds light on how Solo 401Ks present a simpler and more cost-effective option for self-employed individuals, allowing for significant management flexibility.

Key discussion points include the importance of maximizing annual contributions and the strategic benefit of leveraging both traditional and Roth IRAs. Dave elaborates on the diverse investment opportunities afforded by self-directed retirement accounts, such as real estate, cryptocurrencies, and even more exotic options like zoos. However, he also offers crucial warnings about prohibited transactions and the serious tax implications of failing to comply with regulations.

Listeners will gain insights into the timely strategy of IRA conversions and the backdoor Roth approach, particularly in light of potential future tax increases. Dave also covers SEP and SIMPLE IRA plans, which are tailored for small business owners, and underscores the value of employer matches in 401K plans.

Throughout the episode, Dave emphasizes the vital role of professional advice in navigating the retirement planning landscape and directs listeners to retirementriskadvisors.com for additional tools and resources.
