Over 50? Watch This — You’ll Catch Up on Your Retirement
Starting in 2026, if you earn $145,000 or more, your 401(k) catch-up contributions MUST go into a Roth - not pre-tax like before.
That’s not just a big tax change - it’s a huge opportunity for late starters in their 50s and early 60s.
If you’re between 50 and 63, this video walks you through the 5 exact steps to turn this new law into a retirement catch-up plan that works - even if you feel behind.
You’ll learn how to use super catch-ups (up to $34,750/year!), layer in Roth and brokerage savings, build a “retirement bridge” before Medicare or Social Security kicks in, and invest with confidence - not confusion.
Forget feeling late. This is your decade to win.
In this episode, Dr. Preston Cherry (Financial Planning Ph.D., CFP®, Top 10 Investopedia Advisor, and Founder of Concurrent Wealth Management) breaks down the 2025-2026 contribution limits, smart Roth planning, tax-efficient savings buckets, and how to actually retire on your terms.
