Local Financial Advisor Completes Advanced Virtual Training from America’s IRA Experts at Ed Slott and Company, LLC 

As the Aftermath of the SECURE Act and CARES Act Continue to Raise Complex Questions for Retirement Savers, Members of Ed Slott’s Master Elite IRA Advisor GroupSM Attend Semiannual Virtual Workshop on the Latest Retirement Account Planning Strategies, Estate Planning Techniques and Tax Laws 

 Atlanta, May 11, 2021, Beau Henderson, Founder of RichLife Advisors completed his semiannual training with America’s IRA Experts at Ed Slott and Company, LLC by participating in a virtual workshop April 29-30, 2021.

The invite-only workshop was attended by members of Ed Slott’s Master Elite IRA Advisor GroupSM; it provided in-depth technical training on advanced retirement account planning strategies, estate planning techniques, as well as a critical study of the aftermath surrounding the SECURE and CARES Acts’ retirement and tax law changes.

“The repercussions of a tumultuous 2020 met with the application of multiple, significant new tax laws is a recipe for confused and frustrated retirement savers. Our team has been flooded with thousands of questions from individuals trying to understand and apply all the new rules now in effect. Add this to the stress of living in our ‘new normal’ and potentially navigating critical rollover decisions when faced with an early retirement or lay-offs surrounding the pandemic — working with a trained, knowledgeable professional is more important than ever,” said Ed Slott, CPA, founder of Ed Slott and Company, AARP columnist, Professor of Practice at The American College of Financial Services® and nationally recognized IRA Expert who was named “The Best Source for IRA Advice” by The Wall Street Journal.

“As a member of our advanced training program for three years, I commend Henderson for continuously prioritizing his education throughout this ever-changing retirement planning landscape. He is going above and beyond to deliver informed and accurate financial guidance to his clients in a time when it’s needed most. With this ongoing training, Henderson can offer the latest insight on any necessary updates one may need now and into the future.”

Training highlights from this event included: A review of the SECURE Act and CARES Act, including repayment of coronavirus-related distributions (CRDs) and the return of required minimum distributions (RMDs) after being waived in 2020; how to advise successor beneficiaries inheriting retirement accounts under the SECURE Act; determining compensation for IRA and Roth IRA contribution planning; an in-depth look at practical planning issues in naming a minor as an IRA beneficiary; recent IRA court cases and judgments; transferring Roth IRAs in a divorce; comparing employer plans, sorting out plan tax rules and planning strategies for solo(k) plans; and proactive planning steps for navigating critical IRA dates and deadlines throughout the remainder of 2021.

Training was provided by Ed Slott and Company’s team of retirement experts, including Ed Slott, CPA; Sarah Brenner, JD; Andy Ives, CFP®, AIF®; Ian Berger, JD; and Shannon Evans, Esq. Ed Slott and Company and many of the advisors in Ed Slott’s Master Elite IRA Advisor GroupSM are the go-to resources for attorneys, CPAs and other financial advisors because of their in-depth knowledge and expertise in all areas of retirement accounts and distribution planning. This virtual workshop also provided approved continuing education (CE) credits through The American College, CFP® Board, IRS and NASBA for retirement savings and income planning, federal tax law topics, general financial education, and accounting.

The membership also includes workshops, webinars, tax-law updates, step-by-step processes, such as the Complete IRA Care Solution™ 30-module planning guide, and so much more.

“From temporary law changes, like repaying CRDs under the CARES Act, to navigating options and requirements for inherited retirement accounts after the elimination of the stretch IRA after the SECURE Act, there are urgent steps almost all retirement savers need to take to have their financial plans reviewed and updated,” said Henderson. “Add to this the many indirect consequences of the pandemic, from divorce to job changes and early retirements, it is a complex time to be making critical financial decisions. Through my membership with Ed Slott and Company, I am confident in my abilities to serve the best interests of my clients as news continues to break, always equipped with the latest retirement laws and strategies and back-office support team.”

“The members of our Master Elite IRA Advisor GroupSM are taking the lead in helping their clients navigate one of the most uncertain and difficult periods in American history,” said Slott. “The SECURE Act and CARES Act are far from the last changes we will see for the retirement planning landscape, but our members will continue to receive the latest alerts and training on changes to retirement and tax law and policies so they can proactively serve their clients.”
