Every dollar you've saved lives in one of three tax columns: taxable, tax-deferred, or tax-free. This week, Retirement GPS Radio walks through each one and the pre-tax penalty that comes with the middle column: money held in an IRA for decades still comes out taxed like a short-term gain, and it can trigger taxes on Social Security and IRMAA surcharges along the way. Then a case study takes a hypothetical couple with $1.3 million in IRAs: staying pre-tax costs them about $2.9 million in lifetime taxes, while a five-year Roth conversion plan potentially cuts that to about $588,000 and adds nearly $1.5 million in lifetime wealth.

The Tax Tumor in Your Retirement 10-10-26
Every pre-tax IRA and 401(k) has a silent partner: the IRS, and its share grows every time your account does. This week, Retirement GPS Radio calls it the tax tumor and shows why cutting it out with a Roth conversion costs you potentially nothing, because that tax was never yours to begin with. Then a case study: a hypothetical couple with $1.1 million in IRAs pays about $2.1 million in lifetime taxes staying pre-tax and about only $318,000 converting, and ends up with potentially $2.87 million more in lifetime wealth.

The Fund That Never Runs Out 9-26-26
This summer's Social Security and Medicare trustees report sounds the alarm on two trust funds, then calls Medicare Parts B and D “adequately financed into the indefinite future.” This week Retirement GPS Radio explains why that fund can never run out: its funding is reset every year, and the bill lands on retirees as rising premiums and IRMAA surcharges taken straight out of Social Security checks. Then a walk through one couple's case where Roth conversions cut lifetime taxes from about $5.1 million to $894,000.
