Every time a "change in the tax code" occurs, I ask myself, "What is the IRS and our government trying to get us to do? What is their incentive to give US an incentive?" Well, for one, our government both federal and state have major cash flow issues. Instead of waiting until you are 59 1/2 years old to collect income taxes from your IRA or 401(k) retirement plan as you withdraw cash for retirement income...they'd like your money now within the next couple years. A Roth IRA conversion may just be what the doctor ordered so you can take your tax-deferred retirement savings and pay taxes NOW, so you won't have to later.

By continuing to follow his passion, in the midst of a recession and amongst naysayers or "haters", his song Addicted has climbed up the charts to #14 on the Gospel Music Channel's top 20 songs. His story and example is truly one that exemplifies an individual that has found their passion and found a way to turn it into profit.

Others will consider a large income tax refund as their forced savings plan, their vacation money or get-me-a-new-flat-screen-TV-now, fund. Some may even pay-off their Christmas debt. Either way, Uncle Sam loves you for it giving him the opportunity to give you a large federal income tax return. Why? Over the last 12 months, Uncle Sam has been able to use this money to stimulate the American government (notice not economy) at the cost of your own personal financial security and ability to build your own financial independence. Time for you to take control and stimulate your own economy!
