Tax Strategies, Backdoor Roth, Buy vs. Rent - 464

It’s a voice message extravaganza as Joe and Big Al talk about tax gain harvesting on Dante in New York’s daughter’s custodial account, and the tax impacts of Leon in Chicago investing in his brokerage account. The fellas also spitball on whether Michelle in San Diego, en route to San Francisco, should buy or rent in her 60’s, the mega backdoor Roth and the pro rata rule for Sean and his cichlids in Winter Springs, Florida, and whether Jason in NOLA can do the backdoor after recharacterizing his contribution. Plus, should Kevin in Ohio make like the Steve Miller Band and "take the (pension) money and run"? Can Scott in Colorado make like Johnny Paycheck and "take his job and shove it" when it’s time for the rule of 55? And should Suzi and Peter consider long term care insurance and protecting their assets with an irrevocable trust?
