Retirement

history

An IRA is an Individual Retirement Account in which you make contributions toward your future financial security. The amount you put in is flexible, so you may contribute whenever and in whatever amounts you so desire per IRS guidelines. The two most important features for establishing an IRA are:

  • Tax-deductible contributions
  • Tax-deferred earnings

Luso offers various Retirement plans with 5 and 7-year duration contracts.

Roth IRA

With the passage of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, a new type of IRA called the Roth IRA was created. This program is designed to help people save for retirement. Contributions to a Roth IRA are not tax deductible like the traditional IRAs. However, qualified distributions from a Roth IRA are received TAX FREE, and therefore they are very popular.
