Think your taxes will be lower in retirement? For a lot of families, it's the opposite and by the time they realize it, the window to do anything about it has closed.

In this episode, Dale and Dalton break down why proactive planning around Roth conversions is one of the most powerful and most overlooked tools in a retirement plan.

They cover how the right team approach (not just one advisor working in isolation) helps you know when a Roth conversion actually makes sense, how it can lower the tax burden your beneficiaries inherit, and why waiting too long to convert can turn into a costly mistake.

They also walk through why Legacy is the fifth and final piece of the RDS Wealth Retirement Atlas and why a plan isn't truly holistic unless it addresses all five roadmaps: Income, Investment, Tax, Healthcare, and Legacy.
