I’ve got $250,000 in my retirement plan.

What should I do with it when I retire?

You have choices.

One choice is to do nothing. Just let the money sit there until age 70 1/2, when you must take at least minimum distributions. But, if your account begins to lose money, you’ve made a bad choice.

One choice is to withdraw the money. But if you do, you may pay substantial income taxes.

The wise choice is to roll it over. This way, you can keep your retirement savings invested in a tax-advantaged investment vehicle or individual retirement account (IRA), and have an active say in its destiny.

Don’t put your retirement savings in the bank; don’t let it sit idle or depreciate. Direct your savings into conservative investment accounts that keep your money working for you.

Call me at 818-730-2000, and I’ll show you how you can potentially stretch your retirement money over the length of your life, and invest conservatively to live independently and keep taxes down. What you learn might help you build wealth for a lifetime.
