It’s a way to take a big deduc- tion each year from your gross income so you wind up paying less income tax. You may invest up to $2,000 a year in your IRA ($2,250 if you're married and only one of you is a wage earner, $4,000 if you both are). And every pen- ny of your investment is deductible. Every penny earns interest, too. At a rate that’s tied to money market rates, with a guaranteed minimum of 8%. What's more, we compound that interest daily — not annually or quarterly as some banks do— which can make an enormous difference in interest earned over the years. COMPARISON OF INTEREST COMPOUNDING METHODS Amount Net Gain Deposited @ Daily Annual With Daily Years $2,000/ Year Compounding* Compounding* Compounding 10° $20,000 $ 32,097 $ 31,291 $ . 806 20 $40,000 $104,323 $ 98,846 $ 5477 30 $60,000 $266,846 $244,692 $22,153 40 $80,000 $632,553 $559,562 $72,991 And all your interest is tax-deferred. You pay no tax on it until you begin withdrawing funds between 59%; and 701, years of age, when you'll probably be in a lower income tax bracket. If you start an IRA in your early thir- ties, a $2,000-a-year investment can turn into a tidy sum by retirement. And even if you can't start that early, you'll still pile up a sizeable fund. Call or visit any BB&T office and get your IRA started soon. After all, how can you pass up a plan that gives you big bucks in the September of your life and a bigger refund check every April?
