Protecting Your Retirement from Fraud and Identity Theft

Can you really convert to a Roth IRA without paying taxes—or is that a red flag? In this episode of Your Retirement, Your Way, Gary Garland breaks down a MarketWatch question about a so‑called “secret” Roth conversion strategy and explain why claims like these deserve closer scrutiny. The conversation explores how Roth conversions actually work, the tradeoffs involved, realistic timelines for tax break‑even, and why proactive tax planning looks very different from simply filing last year’s return. He also discusses fees, transparency, fiduciary responsibility, and the value of coordinating tax, financial, and estate planning under one roof… without shortcuts or gimmicks.
