Introduction to Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs): Types and Contribution Rules

Explore key concepts of IRA product features, benefits, contributions, and distribution requirements.

56% of individuals that can retire remain at work because of financial reasons. One of the perks of working is the ability to take pre-tax or after-tax dollars and place those in a retirement account. Many working in state institutions, universities, public schools, or first responders use a retirement package known as a pension. Qualified retirement plans offer savers a tax-advantaged way to grow savings while also creating liquidity for retirement. The benefit of saving for retirement in a qualified plan is your ability to defer paying income tax on earnings until you actually need it. There are many retirement plans, and also there is a difference between qualified and non-qualified plans. This course will illustrate the definitions and benefits so that you can make good plans for your future.
