Consult your tax professional about eligibility to Roth and Traditional IRA contributions. Contributions and earnings in a Roth IRA can be withdrawn without paying taxes and penalties if the account owner is at least 59 ½ and has held their Roth IRA for at least five years.

Traditional IRA account owners have considerations to make before performing a Roth IRA conversion. These primarily include income tax consequences on the converted amount in the year of the conversion, withdrawal limitations from a Roth IRA, and income limitations for future contributions to a Roth IRA. In addition, if you are required to take a minimum distribution (RMD) in the year you convert, you must do so before converting to a Roth IRA.

In this episode of Behind the Wealth, we dig into two common retirement questions that often come up in conversations with clients and listeners.

First, we look at Roth conversions in light of the “Big Beautiful Bill” that extended lower tax rates. Many people rushed to convert before the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act was set to expire—so do conversions still make sense now? We’ll discuss the considerations, trade-offs, and planning angles to think about before making any moves.

Next, we tackle the question: “I’m 42—how much should I have saved?” We walk through recent data on retirement account balances by age, highlight why averages and medians can be misleading, and explain why comparing yourself to benchmarks may not give you the full picture. Instead, we’ll share what actually matters: building a personal plan that reflects your lifestyle, income sources, expenses, and retirement goals.

Whether you’re weighing tax strategies or measuring your savings progress, this conversation is about helping you think more clearly about your own financial story.

Another listener wonders: “Is there retirement advice that actually does more harm than good?” We bust some of the most common myths about investing in retirement and highlight what you should watch out for.
