Great article! Of course this would mostly benefit people with larger retirement accounts! It would be a streatch to believe Congress would ever create something this simple without adding layers of rules! I would absolutely and support a temporary flat tax on traditional IRA and 401(k) withdrawals? At a 12% rate this absolutely cause me to raise to raise my withdrawals and my gifting.
I soured on bond investments after my professionally managed bond ladder held a defaulting bond and my subsequent bond fund lost value when interest rates climbed. I'm satsfied holding cash reserves in the money market
What a great story well told! I shared many of your experiences including driving beer trucks, an amicable divorce, a chance meeting with a wonderful woman and the blessing of a happy life ever after.
Thanks for your post, Andrew! I belive I have gifted each of my children each of the advice books Jonathan published. I know each of them have graciously listened and nodded to the many, many pieces of Jonathan's wisdom I have attempted to pass on them.
