I had no idea my IRA could generate this much monthly income. The calculator showed me exactly what to expect and helped me plan my retirement date.

An Individual Retirement Account (IRA) is one of the most flexible tools for building and withdrawing retirement income. Whether you have a Traditional IRA, Roth IRA, or SEP IRA, understanding your withdrawal options is key to maximizing your retirement income.
Traditional vs. Roth. Traditional IRA withdrawals are taxed as ordinary income, while Roth IRA withdrawals are tax-free (assuming qualified distributions). This difference can significantly impact your after-tax retirement income.
The right withdrawal strategy depends on your total retirement savings, other income sources, tax bracket, and how long you need your money to last. Working with a licensed advisor can help you optimize withdrawals across multiple accounts.
