The Financial Starting Line – Net Worth, 529 to Roth IRA and Q&A | Episode 003


Listen Later

In this episode of Mark’s Money Mind, host Mark Trautman, CFP® discusses his upcoming participation as a case study panelist at the EconoMe Conference.

The episode is divided into three segments: a money lesson on creating your own net worth statement, a personal experience with rolling over a 529 plan to a Roth IRA under the new SECURE 2.0 Act provision, and a listener question regarding whether to switch from a traditional 401k to a Roth 401k and considerations for buying a house. 

Mark provides a comprehensive breakdown of calculating and interpreting net worth, shares insights from his experience with new legislation affecting 529 plans, and offers thoughtful considerations on Roth 401k contributions and the financial implications of homeownership.
