Hello and welcome to the Enjoy More 30s Family
Joseph Okaly:
Finance podcast. For all those people out there trying to avoid
Joseph Okaly:
being financially secure, we have our series 10 Ways to NOT
Joseph Okaly:
Be a Millionaire for you today. Now, if you actually do want to
Joseph Okaly:
be a millionaire, not to worry, this series isn't just for those
Joseph Okaly:
people who are looking for financial ruin. If you avoid
Joseph Okaly:
doing these 10 things, then you could be well on your way very
Joseph Okaly:
likely to millionaire-hood as well. Each week I'll share a
Joseph Okaly:
quick step in this how to not be a millionaire process so you
Joseph Okaly:
know what to do, or hopefully what to avoid.
Joseph Okaly:
As always before I begin, please share and like, please leave
Joseph Okaly:
reviews. I'd love to reach and help as many young families out
Joseph Okaly:
there just like you.
Joseph Okaly:
Today's great tip on how to not be a millionaire is Rushing Past
Joseph Okaly:
the Roth. Roth retirement accounts, whether that be a Roth
Joseph Okaly:
IRA, which would be a retirement account that you set up on your
Joseph Okaly:
own, or a Roth 401(k), which would be a retirement account
Joseph Okaly:
you set up through work, all grow completely tax free. So if
Joseph Okaly:
you see the word Roth at the beginning, that means it grows
Joseph Okaly:
tax free. Now, obviously, if you do not want to be a millionaire,
Joseph Okaly:
you wouldn't want something that grows tax free. You want to pay
Joseph Okaly:
lots of taxes! The more you pay in taxes, the more it will
Joseph Okaly:
hamper your financial situation. Perfect for avoiding the
Joseph Okaly:
building up of wealth. If you put away $500 a month into a
Joseph Okaly:
regular retirement account, at 10%, over 30 years, you would
Joseph Okaly:
have over $1.1 million. Now with a Roth, unfortunately, all of
Joseph Okaly:
that would be tax free, you wouldn't have to give any of it
Joseph Okaly:
back to the government. But luckily, if you use that
Joseph Okaly:
Traditional IRA, it would still carry a tax burden with it. So
Joseph Okaly:
if your tax bracket was 25%, that would be around $275,000 of
Joseph Okaly:
that amount would technically be earmarked for Uncle Sam. Much,
Joseph Okaly:
much better. Now if you actually do want to be a millionaire and
Joseph Okaly:
pay less in taxes on all that investment growth, a Roth
Joseph Okaly:
account would likely be a great way to do that. There's a reason
Joseph Okaly:
that a Traditional IRA contribution is always fully
Joseph Okaly:
deductible to those people that have no work retirement plans,
Joseph Okaly:
regardless of how much income they made. While Roth IRAs
Joseph Okaly:
always have income limits, if you make too much you are not
Joseph Okaly:
eligible. They can be pretty useful I guess that means that
Joseph Okaly:
building wealth. Overall, I think it is more than clear
Joseph Okaly:
running past the Roth is a fantastic way to not be a
Joseph Okaly:
millionaire.
