Roth conversions can be a powerful tool, but only if you understand the trade-offs. In this episode, Jim Cipriotti breaks down the real-world considerations behind converting a traditional IRA to a Roth, from immediate tax impacts to long-term retirement benefits.

Whether you're trying to create tax-free income, reduce future required minimum distributions, or leave a more efficient legacy, this discussion highlights the key factors every retiree and pre-retiree should understand before making a move.
