Are mutual funds or ETFs a better place for them to invest qualified money in the decumulation phase? Is there a difference between a traditional IRA and a rollover IRA? And Keith in Connecticut is 34 and wants a spitball on whether his investments are appropriate for his time horizon, today on Your Money, Your Wealth® podcast number 512 with Joe Anderson, CFP® and Big Al Clopine, CPA. Plus, Gus in Philly needs a withdrawal strategy for his dad’s multi-year guaranteed annuities (MYGAs).
