Hey everyone, welcome to the big picture retirement show. I'm your host, Devin, and today we're bringing

you the last of the encore episodes before John and I get into releasing some of this new content

that we've been working on. But we are ending this with a bang, and today we're going to replay

our most downloaded episode ever. This is the Retirement Tax tax torpedo. You know, we talk about how

the calculation that the IRS uses to determine how you pay taxes on retirement income, it creates

this danger zone where taxes can be substantially amplified. And for individuals who fall into this danger zone,

their tax rate on some of their retirement income can be much higher. So we talk about how to avoid

that pitfall and go over some other steps that you can take to reduce taxes in general. So with that,

let's get right into this episode.

The Big Picture Retirement Show does not provide tax, legal, or financial advice. Listeners are

encouraged to seek out their own advisors in these areas.

Hey, everyone, welcome to the Big Picture Retirement Show. I'm your host, Devin, joined today by my co-host,

John Ross. Howdy.

John, taxes are something that you and I work with every day. Every day. In your line of work,

it's critically important. And in my line of work, retirement, financial planning, it's something that I see people don't pay enough attention to.

Right.

They're watching their investment returns.

Sure.

They're watching their investment expense.

And they're often ignoring their taxes.

Are you surprised by the lack of tax knowledge of your fellow financial advisors?

Florida.
