Things that could have made him give up.<\/p>\n<p>First of all, Ralph lives in America\u2019s heartland, an area hit particularly hard by the 2008 financial crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, Ralph is a 61 year-old baby-boomer, staring retirement square in the face.<\/p>\n<p>To make matters worse, Ralph says he\u2019s been\u00a0<em>\u201cblindly led by the nose for the past 40 years\u201d<\/em>\u00a0in regards to financial advice.<\/p>\n<p>But Ralph didn\u2019t give in. He took action, and now he\u2019s taking control of his financial future.<\/p>\n<p>In his own words,\u00a0<em>\u201cI feel fantastic. I feel in control of my retirement planning and wealth management for the first time in my life.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>How did Ralph take control? It was a three step process.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>1. He refused to be led by the nose<br \/>\n2. He started educating himself<br \/>\n3. He took action and started building a wealth team<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Once again, here are Ralph\u2019s own words:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cKnowledge is power. My family is surprised at how animated I have become on this issue. My oldest son says that I am a fanatic about it in a good way.

Earning them inside an IRA makes them fully taxable at some future date. The same applies to capital gains. The IRS will make more money from you if you earn these income items inside an IRA.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I heard endless discussions about this here in Canada for the analogous type of account. It is clearer in Canada because capital gains have been taxed at a reduced rate since 1971 and dividends for about the same length of time.\u00a0\u2013 David H.<\/p>\n<p>Good point David \u2026 although it only applies to a traditional IRA (taxes deferred until withdrawal).<\/p>\n<p>In the U.S. you can also form a ROTH IRA. With a ROTH, you pay taxes on the amount you put in now.
