pension

By Terry Savage on April 20, 2024 | Financial Planning / Retirement

Hi,
I have a 45000 retirement pension that needs to be put somewhere else. Should I cash out and pay some credit cards down and then invest the rest like a CD, should I do an annuity, should I do a monthly allotment. This is a pension that was dissolved and we went with a 401k. Im 65 not retired still working and still investing.

Well, the first thing you should do is a direct rollover to an IRA! That way you won’t pay taxes on the money and it can keep growing for your retirement.

Follow the instructions above and set up the direct rollover.

I don’t know how old you are, how much credit card debt you have — but the best course is to keep this money growing tax deferred, instead of taking it out and paying taxes on it now!
