How I’m Fixing My Grandma’s RMD Problem (VIDEO)

Large IRA balances can quietly turn into multi‑million‑dollar tax bombs once Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) kick in.

I’m doing this right now for my own grandma.

In the video, I walk through why the standard advice – “just do Roth conversions in early retirement” – often isn’t enough and can even create new problems (higher brackets, IRMAA, sequence risk) if you do it blindly.

Then I show how we actually solve this for clients using targeted Roth conversions and better account placement:

  • Reduce or even eliminate future RMDs
  • Cut down your lifetime tax bill (not just this year’s)
  • Move assets into Roth IRAs so your heirs inherit tax‑free buckets instead of tax bombs

If you (or your parents / grandparents) have a large IRA and no real plan for RMDs beyond “convert some to Roth,” this will help.

Give it a watch and share it with someone staring at a big IRA and no strategy.
