In this episode, Tim breaks down everything you need to know about Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and how they fit into a long-term financial plan. He explains the differences between Traditional and Roth IRAs, who can contribute, how much you can save, and how taxes work both now and in retirement. Tim also covers investment choices inside an IRA, rules around withdrawals, and advanced options for self-employed people like SEP and SIMPLE IRAs. Along the way, he shares practical strategies for balancing short-term flexibility with long-term growth. One Key Takeaway: An IRA is one of the most powerful tools for building long-term financial security—but only if you understand how it works and use it intentionally.
