For millions of Americans, the largest portion of their retirement savings sits inside traditional IRAs and 401(k) accounts. These tax-deferred accounts can be powerful tools for building wealth — but without a withdrawal strategy, they can also create significant tax consequences later in life. In this episode of Retirement Roadmap, Evan and Mark discuss how IRA withdrawals work, why Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) matter, and how taxes can impact the income you actually keep during retirement. They also explore Roth conversions, tax diversification, Medicare premium considerations, and why many retirees may face higher taxes than they expected. Whether you're already retired or still building your nest egg, understanding how and when to withdraw retirement savings could make a substantial difference in your long-term financial plan.
