Weston Stewart Shoemaker Financial

Weston Stewart Shoemaker Financial I offer compassionate advice to families to help accumulate wealth and protect their future. Most point to the age bracket between 35 and 50. Got it?

🤔ARE YOU A GEN X'ER?🤔 There have been many age brackets thrown out in who can be considered a Gen X'er. The years 1965 and 1980 are thrown out there too. If you fall into any of these brackets, consider yourself part of the pack. I remember cartoons coming on every Saturday morning and having to buy CDs in music stores. I also rented movies at stores dedicated to renting movies. Good, I'm a Gen X'

er too! According to recent studies, the average Gen X'er has only $40,000 in retirement savings. One of four Gen X'ers have been found to not have any retirement savings at all. We are facing saving for retirement, as well as planning for care for our parents and planning for the education of our children. It's scary navigating the choppy financial waters. That's a lot to consider and you're not alone, even though sometimes you may think that you are. How can I help? Everyone has their own unique experience with finances. No matter where you are, I can help by utilizing any of these Five Steps:

✔Quick Conversation: Let’s get to know each other and see if we are a fit. It doesn’t cost you anything

If your kids are starting a summer job, why not look into a Custodial Roth account? Talk to your kids about how they can get started with tax-advantaged savings. Whether they put money in the account or you get it started for them with a gift, it’s a good way to start a great habit. For more information or to set up a meeting, drop us a note today!

We can explain the pros and cons of Custodial Roth IRA, and introduce you to some of the unique features of custodial accounts, including when kids can take control of the asset. Also, remember, with a Roth IRA, to qualify for the tax-free and penalty-free withdrawal of earnings, a Roth must meet a 5-year holding requirement and occur after age 59½. Tax-free and penalty-free withdrawals can also be taken under certain other circumstances, and the original Roth IRA owner is not required to take minimum annual withdrawals.
