The Aul Financial HourA simple retirement strategy could trigger unexpected taxes if you miss one critical rule. On this episode, Steve Aul breaks down the realities of backdoor Roth conversions, including the often-overlooked pro rata rule that can create costly tax consequences. He also discusses whether claiming Social Security early and investing the benefits makes sense, how to optimize Social Security decisions for couples, and why longevity, inflation, taxes, market risk, and income planning remain essential pieces of a retirement strategy. Grounded planning, not assumptions, is the theme throughout this conversation.
