How should your financial strategy change when income increases dramatically? Like $450K one year to $1.25M the next? (Guessed Roth conversions might be in the answer? Correct!) That’s today on Your Money, Your Wealth® podcast 417. Joe Anderson, CFP® and Big Al Clopine, CPA also spitball strategies for when income is too high to make Roth contributions, and can you use capital gains to contribute to Roth? Can "Alligator Joe" afford to retire early, or does he need to keep gutting it out wrestling alligators? Should Catherine contribute to her 401(k) or buy company stock before she quits her day job to start a business? The fellas also spitball retirement planning involving structured settlements, inherited assets, and ACA credits, and they discuss transferring annuities to a CD vs. deferring interest into another annuity.
