The Stretch IRA

摘要

Qne Of The Great Loopholes in modern tax law: retirement accounts that go on compounding for decades after the worker's death, for the benefit of heirs. One of the great morasses of tax complexity: retirement accounts. If you inherited an IRA between 1998 and 2001, or if you plan to leave one to a trust when you die, pay attention: You may need to act now. What follows is complicated, but could produce decades of extra tax deferral for you or your heirs. And it applies not just to Individual Retirement Accounts but to inherited Keoghs, 401 (k)s and even some company pension plans.
