| The SECURE Act is a disaster but it was only needed because of greedy planning attorneys who tried to game the system with stretch IRA trusts. |
| What a poorly written article! |
| I don’t understand |
| Challenge these regs. The law was ambiguous and while under Chevron this would have been a fine interpretive reg, it is now regulatory over-reach and invalid. |
Non-spouse, Non-Roth: If you inherit an IRA.. AND the person you are inheriting from is already on RMD THEN you are expected to withdraw money based on an RMD schedule with a baloon withdrawal in year 10 If you inherit an IRA.. AND the person you are inheriting from is not on RMD THEN you can withdraw money anytime during the 10 year period Roth-IRA: You can withdraw money anytime during the 10 year period Spouse: No RMD requirements other than your own. |
I'm sure someone will. |
^^pp again.. sent too soon. Likely be challenged by brokerage houses that have much to lose by people withdrawing before the 10 years are up. And most idiots will think they are being done a favor by the lawsuit and the supreme court until the balloon withdrawal and consequent taxes hits them
|
I know I'm just a poor working schlub but I don't think I have a problem with this rule. What is the objection? |
People don't want to be told what to do. They want to be able to withdraw whatever they want, whenever they want. Every little rule they don't like will now be litigated thanks to the idiots in the SC overturning an established precedent. The funny thing is, most people think it's for their benefit when it's really for the benefit of large corporations at the cost of poors like them (regardless of what they think of themselves). Lawyers and corporations benefit. |
Re: bolded. Does this preclude an heir from doing something sensible like withdraw 1/10 the first year, 1/9, the next year, etc? Not clear to me from the way this is written as the balloon reference is throwing me off |
No. You can always withdraw more than the RMD. You can withdraw it all the first year if you want. It’s just that the supposed benefit here was letting the money sit and accumulate before withdrawal. |
It does not. RMD is "Required Minimum Distribution". There's no maximum. One could withdraw 100% in year 1, if they so choose as long as it is at or above the RMD percentage. |
| This is something to plan for if you have a lot of money in an IRA. My dad passed away with $1m in an IRA. Trying to figure out the best way to withdraw it. I know it is not a bad problem to have. |
| PSA to people with a lot of money in retirement accounts..If you can without undue tax burden, convert your 401Ks/IRAs to Roth before you start RMD. RMD withdrawals cannot be put into a Roth IRA. |
