Retiree at 75 Weighs Whether Roth Conversion Is Still Worthwhile
Original: Did I Miss My Chance to Do a Roth Conversion? I'm 75 With a Sizeable IRA.
A 75-year-old retiree with a large individual retirement account asks whether it is too late to convert savings into a Roth IRA. The question highlights a common dilemma for older savers: conversions trigger immediate income taxes, but could reduce future required minimum distributions and leave heirs tax-free money. Advisers often note that partial conversions can still make sense at this age, depending on tax bracket, health and estate goals.
Why now: Older retirees approaching required minimum distributions are actively weighing whether Roth conversions remain advantageous.
