from Unlock Your Retirement · host Bruce Smith

As you approach your golden years, many retirees discover that their largest "partner" in their 401(k) is actually the IRS, waiting to claim a significant portion of every withdrawal. This episode breaks down how the shift from a lower tax bracket today to potentially higher rates in the future can decimate your projected nest egg if you aren't prepared. We explore proactive strategies like Roth conversions and tax-bracket management to help you defuse this fiscal threat before your first distribution hits.
