The Truth About Inheritance nobody talks about : Retirement and Inheritance

[@RobertMcclean-ed4eb]

Once again, an excellent topic and presentation. All points are spot on, but perhaps you could cover the implications of inheriting an IRA. The ten year period withdrawal period and recipient’s tax rate can reduce the benefit of the inherited IRA.

Great advice!

[@YourRichAuntie]

Glad you think so!

Could some of the increase in age come with the decline of defined benefit plans? i.e. people are worried about loosing their income later in retirement than they are used to?

[@YourRichAuntie]

Can you clarify your question? Increase in age for inheritance or retirement?

[@anderspedersen6750]

@@YourRichAuntie increase in age for when you receive inheritance, or rather increase in the age of the person giving the inheritance.

[@YourRichAuntie]

I’m not sure the two - increase in inheritance age and decrease in defined benefit plans are related, except that they’re both connected by increasing life expectancy
