Thanks for all the excellent comments and suggestions regard RMD’S. I have been withdrawing RMD’S for several years and this Thread has been interesting/informative and from the information posted here it appears that my CPA and mentor/advisor has done his due diligence in advising me on best practices regarding my IRA required minimum distributions. That said, my advise to others who are in the “same boat” as me when it comes to taxes and RMD’S - get some help and advise regarding distribution of your RMD before you reach the required age for distribution and your tax advisor will save you more $$$$ than his/her advise will cost. Fore!
