4 Ways to Build Tax-Free Wealth for High-Income Earners

The Power Of Zero Show

Today’s episode addresses how to create multiple tax-free income streams that don’t show up on the IRS’s radar and that contribute to you being in the 0% tax bracket in retirement.

Having some money in a tax-deferred account, like an IRA or 401k, is the first way high-income earners can create tax-free wealth for retirement.

Contributing to your Roth 401k or Roth 403b, as well as leveraging a backdoor Roth, are a couple of additional ways to build tax-free wealth in retirement.

David touches upon what CPA and retirement expert Ed Slott calls “the single greatest tax benefit in the IRS tax code.”

David makes a comparison between Indexed Universal Life vs. a taxable brokerage account.

David believes that “the higher your tax bracket, the more it makes sense to reposition surplus savings from your taxable account to indexed universal life.”
