  • There is more than one type of individual retirement account (IRA). In this episode, we focus on the different types, including Traditional, Roth, SEP, SIMPLE IRAs, and spousal IRAs.

    We explore each type's tax advantages, eligibility, and implications, especially for individuals with cross-border considerations.

    The conversation also covers important aspects such as distributions, rollovers, conversions, and the significance of consulting financial and tax advisors for personalized advice.
