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).
