 Are you considering whether to convert your traditional IRA into a Roth IRA? There could be some benefit in doing so. With a Roth IRA, you’re allowed to take withdrawals tax-free after age 59½. Withdrawals from your traditional IRA are taxed as ordinary income.

If your goal is to keep your funds in your IRA as part of a legacy planning strategy, the idea of eliminating RMDs may be appealing.  Every parent wants the best for their child.
