In this video I explain exactly what a Roth IRA conversion is, when it makes sense to convert, how to convert and when you should not convert. I also explain what a Roth IRA conversion ladder is and why so many financial independent, retire early followers are using this strategy.

Also in this video, I explain what a backdoor Roth IRA contribution is and how to go about doing it.

    Are you taking clients for retirement planning at this time? If yes, what is your fee?

    For the "Pro-Rata" rule – Does it still apply if you open a new IRA at a different brokerage for the sole purpose of doing a Back Door? If you have an existing traditional IRA account at Schwab, but then opened a NEW traditional account at Vanguard to make this year's 6K after tax contribution – would you be able to convert the Vanguard account to a Roth within Vanguard bypassing the Pro-Rata rule?

    I'm in a predicament. My wife and I contributed the max 7000 each in a Roth IRA early 2020, but during the year I've unexpectedly netted over 400K from stocks plus over 100K in regular wage income. I believe I would be ineligible to have invested in the Roths IRAs? What can or must I do?

    There’s not enough time remaining for me to get a Roth conversion done and have it count towards 2020. What if I was able to take out a disbursement (from a 403b) in the next remaining week and then deposit it into a Roth in January? Would that taxable event still count towards 2020?

    When you make the conversation, do you only get tax at federal level or do you have to pay state tax as well?

    I never comment on youtube videos but this is well made. You deserve a lot more views on this than you have. There's a reason there are 0 dislikes. Well made, thank you for your help.

    Hi there, School of Personal Finance. I love your content and have a quick question about the conversion via a employer. So a employer could allow you to roll over your Trad IRA into a 401k and then you can convert it into a Roth IRA, correct?

    Hello, could you make an video about how to choose a good index funds for IRA? Morning star rating? 3-5-10 Years of return? Thank you

    Very good video. At 68y/o, I'm on Medicare for health insurance, we each have a pension and one is also getting SS. This year I'll have 75% in my Roth IRA and 25% in traditional IRA. To simplify our IRAs I planned on 100% Roth, but there is talk of a benefit of keeping 5-10% in Traditional. I am baffled how this 5-10% would be a big enough plus to make it worthwhile. If it matters, we are in a good place with cash reserves, and after 13 years in retirement, we haven't had the need to take anything out of the IRAs.
