You’ll learn:
-
Which common investments increase your IRMAA
-
Why even reinvested income can raise your Medicare costs
-
How fixed indexed annuities and MYGAs may offer IRMAA-friendly growth
-
What the exclusion ratio is and how it helps reduce taxable income from annuities
-
When Roth conversions inside annuities might make sense
If you're close to retirement—or already navigating Medicare—this episode can help you make smarter decisions about income and taxes in retirement.
