The SEP IRA is a simple way to invest into your retirement while reaping HUGE tax benefits.
The SEP IRA allows business owners to deduct up to $58,000 and put that money towards retirement.
This is thousands of dollars more than the $6,000 contribution limit that a standard traditional or Roth IRA account allows you to deduct.

ok so you need to make around 294,000 to contribute 58k???
at 2:36 you say, you can contribute up to 20%. However from what I’m reading from other sources you can contribute up to 25% or $58,000 ($61,000 for 2022 ever is lower). can you clarify? Thanks for posting!

Big ups to everyone working effortlessly trying to earn a living while building wealth. I’m 50 and my wife 44 we are both retired with over $3 million in net worth and no debts. Currently living smart and frugal with our money. Saving and investing lifestyle made it possible for us this early even till now we earn monthly through passive income.
Thanks to fire movement.
Good stuff man.
Could a SEP IRA be rolled over to a regular IRA if for example you decide to go back being an employee instead of being self employed?
Where is LYFE Accounting located? Cali, I hope.
Hi. Thank you. Can those functioning as Sole Proprietors also go this route?
Are the limits based on the employee income?
Thanks for a great video. I have a question. I am a freelance musician (small business account/EIN) with extra $ in my bank savings. I’m trying to put the $ into more investment strategies. I currently have a Roth, and it is maxed out. Should I have a SEP as well ? To dump extra cash in… My income is less than $100k/ year .The more than 100k in savings is money that has just built up over my life of saving. Hope to hear back.
Excellent thank you so much. I know this may sound like a little thing but it is huge for me…In that I loved how you had the words displayed on the screen regarding what you were saying. It helped me so much to process what you were saying. Thank you again
LYFE, I am still not understanding what happens with the money sitting in the account, is it earning interest or what? ~~ I am an independent contractor, so how often can I contribute to my account? this is August 2021 so do I have until April 2022 to contribute? and where does one start? the IRS 5305-sep? _ do I need a CPA to do this?
Can day traders open up a SEP? I keep hearing you say "earned income" and I believe capital gains would be a disqualification?
If I sell a stock in my SEP, is that a taxable event? For example, I sell stock “A” and make “X” profit, then reinvest in another stock within the SEP?
Thank you for this info, your videos are always precise and straight to the point, appreciate this!
You can’t deduct Roth contributions.
Fantastic. Can't wait for your Solo 401K video!
Keep up the great work. Love these videos.
Hi, thank you for the information. Quick question, would I be able to set up a SEP IRA with an ITIN if I don't have a SSN
I was thinking about starting a SEP-IRA, but I already contributed to my Roth-IRA for 2021. Would I still be able to do that?
As always… another great video! I love you all!!
This is huge tax savings, thanks for explanation
Thank you for this informative video.
