How Retirement Plans Can Boost Your Savings and Future Wealth

Written by Oberlander & Co Team | November 11, 2021

As the year comes to an end, business owners and individuals seek opportunities to maximize their savings through year-end tax planning. A Qualified Retirement Plan can be a great tool for small business owners who want to save on taxes and grow their personal wealth at the same time.

 

An IRA is an account set up with a financial institution that allows an individual to save for retirement, with tax-free growth or on a tax-deferred basis.
 
With a traditional IRA, you get a tax deduction when you contribute to the account and will pay taxes when you withdraw the money. Most people find themselves in a lower tax bracket once they retire. Therefore, the funds will be taxed at a lower rate when withdrawn.
  • There are no income limitations when not covered by a retirement plan at work.

In a Roth IRA, you don't get the deduction when you contribute, but the money grows tax-free. The income from the growth is not taxable. 

For 2024 The IRA contribution limit is $7,000; for 2025, the limit will remain the same.
