Course Details
Ways to Minimize Taxes and Maximize Income After Selling Your Practice
Planning for retirement requires a careful balance of maximizing your income while minimizing your taxes. Unfortunately, not everyone plans before executing their retirement. This course is designed to equip retired doctors with essential strategies for retirement planning, helping them protect and grow their assets while securing a sustainable income stream. Doctors will gain insight into tax-efficient retirement income planning, investment management, Social Security optimization, and effective estate planning techniques. This course provides a comprehensive roadmap to help doctors enjoy retirement, preserve wealth, and achieve long-term financial peace of mind. By the end of this course, participants will be empowered with practical knowledge to make informed retirement and estate planning decisions, through objectives like:
- Optimize Retirement Income Sources
- Save Tens of Thousands or More With Tax Efficient Withdrawal Strategies
- Maximize Social Security Benefits
- Implement Tax-Efficient Investment Strategies
- Incorporate Legacy and Estate Planning Goals
- Plan for Health Care Costs in Retirement
- Understand Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs)
- Stay Informed on Policy and Legislative Changes
Intended Audience: Doctors (& their spouses) who have sold their practice – or are just about to! If you’re several years out from retirement, please view our Any Age, Any Stage 5-Day Seminar in February or our Retiring Doctor seminar in June.
