This week, my team and I are pausing Wealth Office Hours LIVE as we focus on the Self-Directed IRA Summit.

This is the 13th annual SDIRA Summit, and this year it’s fully virtual to increase accessibility so anyone can attend from anywhere. No hassle, more education, better investing.

The summit is tomorrow from 9 AM to 5 PM PT. I’ll be joined by nine other industry leaders, including self-directed IRA experts and specialists in alternative assets. This is where investors and professionals come together to share real strategies and insights. It’s a great opportunity to learn from industry experts, explore self-directed investing strategies, network, and stay ahead of the curve.

If you’d like to attend, you can grab your ticket here: sdirasummit.com/

For a discount code, follow Directed Trust Company on LinkedIn and Instagram (lnkd.in/g9f7tdsD), then comment “SDIRA Summit” on any Directed IRA Instagram post. My team will send you an exclusive code to use at checkout.

For next week’s Office Hours, come prepared with your questions. I’ll see you then, and hopefully (virtually) at the summit tomorrow.

Going LIVE, Today 4pm PT, on Wealth Office Hours.

If you’re trying to finalize your taxes and haven’t looked at your retirement account strategy yet, you may still have time to make moves that impact your 2025 tax return.

In this week’s live, we’re breaking down the IRA and 401(k) strategies you can still implement before the April 15 deadline, including:
• IRA and Roth IRA contribution strategies
• Backdoor Roth timing
• HSA contributions that still count for 2025
• Solo 401(k) rules for business owners
• How some investors can effectively double up contributions across tax years

Too many people focus on filing their return instead of maximizing the strategies that affect it.

Join me live, bring your questions, and let’s make sure you’re not leaving tax savings or retirement growth on the table.
