Hi! I’m 30, own a home, 50k in 401k & 25k in Roth, no other savings. Roth has a ROR of 2%. Should I leave $ in Roth? Reinvest in a diff acct? Grow it until I can buy an investment property?

I’d suggest leaving the $25k in the Roth IRA and definitely reinvest it. If you don’t mind me asking, what are you current holdings? 2% return is paltry in this economy. If you’ve been maxing it out, it’s only like 4-5 years old. Over that timeline, the S&P has increased 60%. Also if the account is not 5yrs old, you will get hit with tax penalties for withdrawals.

I put my 401k rollover from a previous company into a Roth and never did anything with it, it’s all short term reserves.

So just leave the money and allocate to stocks and bonds? (90/10)

Huh? 10 yoe and only c? It all adds up.

2% ROR in this market is criminal. Is it sitting in a money market? The S&P returned 30% last year. Find a financial planner, although their asset management fees can be high you are losing way more by not being invested in the right funds.

Hi tax 🐠,

I have a question for those who prep individual tax returns. My parents claim my grandfather as a dependent on their tax return and due to their low income, receive PTC for the premiums they pay on his insurance (not eligible for medicare). However, would it be advantageous to have him file for his own tax return (he stays with my parents and doesn't have his own proof of residency via bills). If so, can he get PTC if his income is 0?

It can be impossible to deal with financial losses due to declining health or unforeseen circumstances by not having life insurance. In these cases, the solution to your debts (that can affect the financial stability of you or your loved ones) may fall within the category of life insurance.
