Take steps to stretch your IRA

1. Determine if the Stretch IRA is right for you

The Stretch IRA is a strategy designed to maximize your IRA's tax deferral during your lifetime and help leave a legacy for your heirs. However, the Stretch IRA may not be suitable for every investor. It is designed for account owners whose goal is to leave assets to their heirs and have other sources of income other than their IRA to fund their retirement expenses. By working with your financial advisor, you can determine if the stretch strategy makes sense for you.
