Financial Planning
? IRAs ?
GOOD and BAD
The good news about individual
retirement accounts (IRA>) it thot
they cut your current year tax bill,
give you tax-deferred earnings, and
provide you with retirement income.
The bad news Is that they may not be
the best place to put your money
whether your objective is to reduce
your tax bill or to produce income (or
retirement.
Consider the following drawbacks
to having your money in on IRA oc
count. At a retirement vehicle, an
IRA could grow to a sizeable amount,
but 30 years of inflation may reduce
even a million dollars to less than
you need for retirement. With 10%
inflation rate, one million dollars in
30 years would be the same os hav
ing $57,000 today.
The money In your IRA cannot be
used by you. not even as collateral
on a loan. For example, it cannot
provide you with a down payment for
a house or capital for a butinest ven
ture. nor con it be used at collateral
to borrow money for any purpote.
H your IRA fundt are in In
vestments that produce a lott. no
lottet can be claimed on your tax
return. Therefore, your lott it not
cuthioned by a corretponding tax
benefit.
AM Income from on IRA will even
tually be taxed at ordinary income.
The advantageout capital gain tax
rate it lott no matter how your UtA
fundt are Invested. If n*ou were to in
vett in capital gain investment out
tide of an IRA. you might do for bet
ter In accumulating retirement
dollars than you can inside an IRA
If you withdraw your IRA fundt
before age S?V4 . you will pay a 10*
