You’ve spent decades saving for retirement… but then the IRS forces you to start withdrawing—whether you want to or not.
That’s called a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), and if you’re not prepared, it can create a major tax surprise.
In this video, we break down:
• What RMDs are and when they start
• Why RMDs can push you into a higher tax bracket
• How one retiree’s $90,000 RMD triggered unexpected taxes
• Strategies that may help reduce the impact—like Roth conversions, QCDs, and smart withdrawal sequencing
The reality is, RMDs aren’t optional—but how you plan for them can make a big difference.
