Welcome back to the My Retirement Clarity podcast! Today, Lee and Ben dive into a Yahoo Finance that claims someone lost over $400,000 of their retirement savings in a Roth IRA. Is the Roth IRA really to blame, or is there more to the story?
Listen is as we dissect the arguments made against the Roth IRA and shed light on the importance of tax planning in retirement. Lee will explain why Roth IRAs remain an essential part of retirement planning for many, despite the controversial claims made in the article.
