So for anyone who hasn't opened a ROTH ira for for conversions, and that is in your plans, open the ROTH IRA today and get the tax free penalty free clock starting now!

If others have differing opinions from their advisors or tax advisors, would love to hear them to be sure i am not relaying bad information. .

not a CFP guy

they've said the same to me :)

Thanks for the re-boot of this thread. I am going to give it a re-read and also check out the podcast that was mentioned.

I'm following my Fee-Only investment advisor's advice. She is also my CPA for tax filing. Since I was aged 50, she advocated opening a Roth and slowing moving funds each year from my IRA to a Roth, moving only as much each year as to not push me into a higher tax bracket for that year. Whole thing oughta take about a dozen years.
