Before the ball drops on Dec. 31, make sure your retirement income is protected. Take these 3 essential steps:
1️⃣ Take your required minimum distributions (RMDs). Missing the Dec. 31 deadline can trigger a 25% penalty.
2️⃣ Watch your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI). Even small increases could raise future Medicare premiums.
3️⃣ Consider a qualified charitable distribution (QCD). It can satisfy your RMD, lower your MAGI and help you support the causes you care about.
A few simple moves today can help you avoid penalties, manage future healthcare costs and protect your retirement income.
