How to Plan for Retirement Gap Years


Listen Later

Maybe you have heard of retirement "gap years" or maybe it's a new concept to you, but how to plan for your retirement gap years is a common question for retirees.

The value of these years is that they are likely going to be the lowest tax years for the rest of your life. This means you could have an opportunity to take advantage of those lower tax rates and lower your lifetime tax bill.

In this episode of Retirement Answers, we cover:

  • What these gap years are
  • Discuss how you can use them to your advantage
  • Walk through a real life example of this in action
  • My big takeaway

The most important thing you can do is evaluate your situation to see what opportunities you can take advantage of during this crucial time in retirement because you won't get those opportunities back in the future.

If you enjoy the podcast, I'd love it if you could give a rating and review on Apple Podcasts. It's the best way you can say 'Thank You'!
