Listen Later

As 2024 comes to a close, it’s time to get your financial ducks in a row for the new year. Reviewing essential areas now can help you maximize tax efficiency, protect assets, and set up for a successful 2025. Here’s your year-end checklist to keep everything on track:

  1. Maximize Retirement Contributions – Ensure you’re making the most of 401(k), IRA, and HSA contributions. If you’re over 50, don’t forget those catch-up contributions!

  2. Review Tax and Estate Planning – Consider year-end strategies like Roth conversions, charitable donations, and estate updates to reduce taxable income.

  3. Evaluate Insurance Coverage – Double-check that your life, disability, and long-term care insurance meets your needs. Reviewing beneficiaries now can avoid future headaches.

  4. Manage Debt and Optimize Interest Rates – Look at mortgage rates, high-yield savings, and credit lines to make sure you’re getting the best rates before the new year.

  5. Update Investment Allocation – Rebalance your portfolio to align with your financial goals and take advantage of market opportunities.

  6. Get your financial ducks in a row before 2025, and start the new year feeling secure and prepared! #YearEndChecklist #FinancialPlanning #GetYourDucksInARow #TaxSavings
