Uncle Sam loves Qualified plans.
He basically has your retirement money mortgaged and holds a lien
against it with a tax liability.
Here is the main issue with Qualified Retirement Plans that no one talks about:
With a Traditional IRA or 401K, you are simply deferring taxes to an
unknown amount on the entire growth of your account.
If you are at a 33% tax rate and put $6,000 (the seed) into an IRA/401K, you would have received a $2,000 deduction. However, if that account were to grow to $100,000 (the harvest), you will now have a $33,000 tax liability.
If you are at a 33% tax rate and put $6,000 (the seed) into an IRA/401K, you would have received a $2,000 deduction. However, if that account were to grow to $100,000 (the harvest), you will now have a $33,000 tax liability.
You have basically traded a $2,000 deduction, today, and converted it to
a $33,000 tax liability, tomorrow.
