  • Taxes are set to increase in 2026. And even though it may not feel like it, we are living in a historically low tax rate.
    In this video, @Jordan with @WFSTA and @erinkennedy talk through the pros and cons of a Roth Conversion for someone in their 70's.
    First, the pros: if you convert your IRA to a Roth IRA, you and your beneficiaries will have tax-free withdrawals, all future growth will happen tax-free, and you'll have no Required Minimum Distributions, which means you have better control your tax liability.
    But before you convert, you should also consider the cons: when you convert, you will pay all those taxes upfront, which could mean a big tax bill in April. And even though we are living in a historically low tax rate, there is uncertainty over future tax rates: they could go higher, they could go lower.
    If you are in your 70's and considering a Roth Conversion, please give Jordan a call to see if it makes sense as part of your financial plan. Give him a call at 847.499.3454 or visit www.WFSTA.com

    If you are living in Kentucky, you don't have state taxes on IRA withdraws up to $31,000 (2024). So you can transfer to a ROTH up to that amount state tax free.

      As for Iowa, they do not tax retirement income, including Roth conversions, for individuals who are 55 or older.
