A $5,000 Roth conversion that promises zero taxes sounds tempting but the fine print tells a very different story. In this episode, Mike and Ryan break down a real-world question that raises major red flags in retirement planning. They unpack how certain advisors frame “tax-free” strategies, why bonuses inside financial products can quietly create bigger tax bills, and how time horizons can make or break long-term outcomes. The conversation widens to the realities of today’s financial advice industry, from sales-driven recommendations to the importance of working with someone who can address taxes, income, and planning together.
