Consolidating Retirement Plan Assets

If you're like most people, you've probably worked for a number of different employers. The average American changes jobs eight times during the course of a 30-year career, leaving their retirement assets behind with their previous employer. If you are preparing to leave your current employer, make sure you know all the options when it comes to your retirement assets. For example, you can:

Leave retirement assets in your former employer's plan, if they allow it.
Transfer assets to your new employer. Current tax laws make this much easier.
Take the money as cash. This option could include a 10% tax penalty if you're under the age of 59½. (Consult a tax advisor.)
Roll the money into an IRA. Money in a 401(k) plan or a 457 plan can be transferred into a 403(b) plan or vice-versa and money in a rollover IRA can be transferred into your current employer's IRA plan.

Why consider an IRA for your retirement assets?
Substantial taxes can be avoided. Consult a tax advisor for more information.
Tax benefits are preserved.
You gain access to more investment options.
Avoid lump-sum distribution temptation.

How you choose to handle your retirement assets could have a lasting impact on the type of retirement you enjoy. That's why we encourage you to make an appointment today with a FAIRWINDS Financial Advisor, through CFS.*
