The Power Of Zero ShowThe Power Of Zero ShowWill Safe Harbor Rules Protect You If You Do a 4th Quarter Roth Conversion?David McKnight looks at why many people wait until the fourth quarter to do a Roth conversion, the potential penalties, and what can be done to avoid having to pay underpayment penalties to the IRS. David begins the episode by highlighting the fact that a lot of investors wait until Q4 before they do a Roth conversion – and they prefer to pay taxes on it in cash instead of simply having the taxes withheld by the IRS. From a mathematical standpoint, it’s the correct thing to do because it allows you to get 100% of the...2025-06-1806 minBetter OfflineBetter OfflineRadio Better Offline: Pablo Torre and David RothWelcome to Radio Better Offline, a tech talk radio show recorded out of iHeartRadio's studio in New York city.Ed Zitron is joined in studio by Pablo Torre of Pablo Torre Finds Out and David Roth of Defector to talk about independent media, what makes a compelling show, and what it’s like raising a turtle.Pablo Torre Finds Out: https://www.youtube.com/@PabloTorreFindsOut Investigating Belichick's Girlfriend: The Power of Jordon Hudson, Revealed https://youtu.be/As5P5TA-ERk?si=-PfM7fZ-Tw8S-yQc Hank Azaria on His Bruce Springsteen Tribute Band, Ap...2025-06-181h 25The Power Of Zero ShowThe Power Of Zero ShowHow to Avoid the Roth Over-Conversion TrapIn today’s episode, David McKnight focuses on whether you should do a Roth conversion, how much you should convert per year, and whether it’s possible to over-convert to Roth. David explains that an effective tax rate is the actual percentage of your income that you pay in taxes after accounting for deductions, exemptions, and credits. For David, the only reason you should do a Roth conversion is if you believe that your effective tax rate in retirement will be higher than your marginal tax rate today. David touches upon a couple of r...2025-06-1107 minThe Power Of Zero ShowThe Power Of Zero ShowThe 8 Taxes You Could Pay When Doing a Roth Conversion (Is it worth it?)In this episode of the Power of Zero Show, host David McKnight looks at every possible tax or cost that may result from a Roth conversion. The first tax you’ll have to pay when executing a Roth conversion is federal income tax.  Whatever portion of your IRA you convert to Roth is realized as ordinary income and piled right on top of all your other income. David is an advocate for not converting to Roth unless you think your federal tax rate in retirement is likely to be higher than it is tod...2025-05-1410 minKitchen Table FinanceKitchen Table FinanceDoes your Retirement Plan Need a ROTH?Roth Conversions: Worth It or Not? Welcome back to the Kitchen Table! In today’s episode, Dave and Nick take a deeper dive into the world of Roth conversions—what they are, how they work, and whether or not they make sense for your retirement plan. This isn’t your average tax talk. We’re serving up a practical, no-pressure conversation about a tool that gets a lot of hype—and a lot of confusion.

Host David McKnight kicks things off by stating that if you have Roth IRAs or Roth 401(k)s in your portfolio, you should be allocating 100% of these dollars to a stock allocation. That’s because these are your most tax-efficient investments and they’ll remain tax-free right up until your death – and even 10 years beyond. Remember: you want the biggest returns in your portfolio to take place in a tax...2025-05-0707 minThe Power Of Zero ShowThe Power Of Zero ShowDebunking Doug Andrew’s Roth IRA Hit Job VideoIn this episode of The Power of Zero Show, host David McKnight looks at Doug Andrew’s recent video in which he implored his audience to never use a Roth IRA or a Roth 401(k) again. Andrew sees Indexed Universal Life insurance (IUL) as far superior and believes it should be the source of the vast majority of your distributions in retirement. While David likes IUL in certain circumstances, he isn’t a fan of sales strategies that debase every other viable tax-free alternative in an effort to exalt IULs. For David, the vide...2025-04-3012 minThe Power Of Zero ShowThe Power Of Zero ShowWhat Percentage of Your Retirement Savings Should You Have in Traditional IRA vs. Roth?What percentage of your retirement savings should you allocate toward traditional IRAs and 401(k)s vs. Roth IRAs and Roth 401(k)s? That’s what this episode explores. Traditional financial guru advice says that it’s impossible to predict where tax rates are going down the road. Therefore, you may hear that your best bet is to simply have 50% of your money in tax-deferred and 50% of your money tax-free. David is somehow perplexed by the guru’s point of view about the future of tax rates being an unknown. However, signs that t...2025-04-2306 minThe Power Of Zero ShowThe Power Of Zero ShowThe Five Cardinal Rules of Roth ConversionsDavid McKnight goes through his five cardinal rules for doing a Roth conversion.

David shares a simple “rule of thumb” you can follow. In your zeal to get your Roth conversion done before tax rates go up for good, don’t bump into the 32% tax bracket along the way.

That’s exactly what David McKnight dives into in this episode of The Power of Zero Show. The retirement valley is that dip in taxable income that happens after you retire but before RMDs kick in – at age 73 or 75, depending on your birth year. David walks through an example: you’ve got $2 million in your IRA and want to convert all of it to Roth. If you take action during that valley, you can convert more while staying in the 24% tax bracket the whole...2025-04-0906 minThe Power Of Zero ShowThe Power Of Zero Show5 Huge Benefits of the Roth IRA!Today’s episode addresses five reasons why a Roth IRA is one of David KcKnight’s favorite tax-free investments.  Unlike other retirement accounts, Roth IRAs give you 100% liquidity on all contributions. While David isn’t necessarily suggesting that you use your Roth IRA as an emergency fund, it’s nice to know that you won’t have to wait until age 59 ½ to be able to access those funds. If you happen to take out your Roth IRA contributions, you can put that money back within 60 days as long as your Roth IRA was not involved...2025-03-1907 minGold & Silver CentralGold & Silver CentralWhat Is a Precious Metals Roth IRA & How Does It WorkGet Your Wealth Protection Kit: 👉 https://geni.us/GoldcoGuide (for US residents only)When most people think of buying precious metals - gold and silver - they think of coins and bars.

Strongly Consider a Roth ConversionDavid McKnight discusses a couple of really good reasons for doing a Roth conversion when you’re expecting a pension in retirement.  David sees the American tax system functioning in a similar way as a graduated cylinder. Your income goes in and flows all the way down to the bottom. Some of your money gets taxed at 10%, at 12%, 22%, some at 24%, 32%, at 35%, and some at 37%.

This episode dives into practical insights to help you steer clear of unwelcome surprises from the IRS. David illustrates what happens if you withdraw from your Roth 401(k) before age 59½, and how these rules differ from those of a traditional Roth IRA. He subsequently tackles the question of when post-59½ withdrawals of Roth 401(k) growth can be completely tax-free.  Roth 401(k) distributions can be confusing – especially if you’re planning to take fu...2024-10-3004 minThe Power Of Zero ShowThe Power Of Zero ShowIs Dave Ramsey STILL Wrong on Roth Conversions?In the past, David McKnight has been critical of gurus like Dave Ramsey. However, this episode looks at a video in which Ramsey seems to have slightly changed his views. Ramsey emphasizes that one key benefit of a Roth IRA is the potential to drastically reduce or even eliminate Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs). David explains that the decision to pursue a Roth conversion typically depends on whether you expect your future tax rate to be higher than it is today. David discusses a missed opportunity in Ramsey's advice to a caller, highlighting a...2024-10-2310 minThe Power Of Zero ShowThe Power Of Zero ShowHow Do I Do a Roth Conversion and Which Forms Will I Need?This episode answers the question, “How do I do a Roth conversion, and what forms do I need to fill out with the IRS?” David explains that there are three basic steps to convert your IRA to a Roth IRA. Carrying out these three steps will likely take a few weeks – the process could be slightly shorter if everything is handled by the same financial institution. Starting this process in December isn’t ideal because financial institutions are often overwhelmed with conversion requests.  If the conversion isn’t completed by December 31st, the Rot...2024-09-2504 minThe Retirement Roadmap Show with David NagyThe Retirement Roadmap Show with David NagyTaxes on Sale and Roth ConversionsIn this episode, we dive deep into the tax implications of selling investments and Roth conversions.

David defines the acronym IRMAA, Income-Related Monthly Adjusted Amount. This is an additional charge you could be required to pay on your Medicare Part B premiums. As your income goes up in retirement, your Medicare Part B premium increases with it. David explains why standard deductions do not apply when calculating IRMAA.

They discuss the tax bracket you should avoid when doing a Roth conversion. They start the conversation by describing why it’s a no-brainer to pay your taxes today at 22 or 24% marginal rates. Instead of rushing to complete Roth conversions by 2026 and potentially bumping into higher tax brackets, David suggests stretching the conversions over several years.

The only determining factor in whether you should contribute to a Roth 401(k) is what you think your tax rate will be when you retire.
