How Can A Roth IRA Help With Your Retirement Goals?
A Roth IRA is a retirement account that you've already paid taxes on, so distributions from the Roth IRA will always be tax-free!
A Roth IRA can be established with individual contributions or "conversion” of existing traditional or rollover IRA. While you don't get a tax break the year you contribute, once invested, your money grows tax-free. After age 59½, you can withdraw your funds without taxes or penalties if the account has been open for at least five years.
The Benefits of A Roth IRA

Tax-free withdrawals are available provided you’re 59½ or older and you’ve met the 5-year holding period.
No Mandatory Withdrawals (no RMDs)
There is no need to take Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) with a Roth IRA.
