Inherited IRAs: A Beneficiary's Need-to-Knows

The largest wealth transfer in history is happening right now, as baby boomers pass on trillions of dollars in retirement assets. But if you inherit an IRA, the rules aren't as simple as many think, with recent legislation making them even more complex. The team explains the new landscape of inherited IRAs under the Secure Act 1.0 and 2.0. They cover the differences between spouse and non-spouse inheritance, how the 10-year withdrawal rule works, and the major tax consequences you need to prepare for. From required minimum distributions (RMDs) to special exceptions for minors, disabled individuals, and trusts, we show what beneficiaries must know to avoid costly mistakes. Plus, Jeremiah and Nic share planning strategies to reduce the tax hit, like coordinating withdrawals with your income or leveraging Roth accounts for long-term growth.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Hosts: Jeremiah Bates & Nic Daniels
