[00:00 - 05:21] Introduction and Basics of Roth IRAs
- Roth IRAs allow tax-free growth and withdrawals in retirement.
- Traditional vs. Roth: Traditional IRAs offer tax deductions upfront, while Roth IRAs grow tax-free with withdrawals in retirement.
- Max contributions for 2024: $7,000 ($8,000 for those over 50).
[05:22 - 11:18] Backdoor and Mega Backdoor Roth Explained
- The backdoor Roth strategy involves making non-deductible contributions to a traditional IRA and then converting it to a Roth IRA.
- Mega Backdoor Roth allows much larger contributions using 401(k) plans.
- Benefits of Mega Backdoor Roth include higher contribution limits, tax-free growth, and tax-free withdrawals.
- This strategy is beneficial for anyone with access to a 401(k) plan, even those in lower tax brackets.
[11:19 - 14:08] Strategy Steps and Example
- Max out employee contributions, then after-tax contributions, and convert to a Roth the next day.
- A business owner can contribute up to $76,000 per year and, with a 12% return, accumulate over $1 million in just 7.5 years.
- The earlier you start, the greater the potential for tax-free growth.
