• Financial Fraud
    Jan 30 2026
    Financial fraud is a multi-billion-dollar industry, and it is much bigger than we think because many fraudulent cases go unreported.

  • Backdoor Roth and the Pro Rata Rule
    Dec 1 2025
    Roth IRAs, due to their tax-free growth and tax-free distributions, can be useful accounts for any financial plan. The IRS has rules about who can fund Roth IRAs; however, there is a loophole that allows some high income earners to fund Roth IRAs indirectly. This loophole is commonly referred to a "Backdoor Roth" contribution. The IRS has a rule that makes it difficult to fund backdoor Roth IRAs if you already have a traditional IRA. I discuss this "pro rata rule" in detail. Failure to understand this rule is one of the biggest mistakes when utilizing the backdoor Roth IRA.
