The Million Dollar 401(k) Myth

That “million‑dollar” 401(k) may not be as big as it looks once Uncle Sam has his say. In this episode of The Big Easy Finance Show, Robert Tanner breaks down required minimum distributions (RMDs), why they exist, and how taxes, penalties, and timing can dramatically change retirement outcomes. The discussion explores the history behind tax‑deferred accounts, common RMD mistakes, the cost of missing withdrawals, and why ongoing portfolio reviews matter. It’s a numbers‑driven look at taxes, strategy, and what many retirees don’t realize until it’s too late.
