History’s strangest taxes, from beard fees to window levies, set the stage for a revealing look at the surprising tax traps waiting in retirement. In this episode, Glenn Johnson breaks down how today’s retirees can be blindsided by required minimum distributions and inheritance tax rules that shift dramatically after age 73. He explains why proper planning, strategic Roth conversions, and balancing account types can prevent families from stumbling into avoidable tax burdens. Glenn also shares real‑world examples that highlight how proactive tax strategy can restore control and flexibility in retirement.
