Review Date: July 23, 2006
Reviewer: Alexander McKelvey, Los Angeles
This book focuses on ensuring that your IRA is properly set up, so that it can be passed on to beneficiaries intact, effectively establishing a "stretch IRA". The stretch IRA describes an IRA held by a beneficiary, and which will pay out over their lifetime.

This book is very well organized, and the author is clearly very enthusiastic about his subject. He does quite well making his case, that you should ensure your IRA passes intact to a beneficiary, in that it can offer them HUGE tax advantages for their entire life time.

He is also quite good about explaining the steps you need to achieve this. Much of the book is reference material that will not apply to everyone at any given time, but that is not a real criticism. The book is cheap enough, and the sections that apply to all are worth the entire purchase price.

If you have an IRA, and you have any desire to pass your assets along to a beneficiary, this book is an excellent starting point.

Ed Slott is considered THE expert on stretch IRA's. Book is aimed at investors who will probably die before depleting their IRA funds. It explains how to structure a stretch IRA to pass this money on to future generations with minimal taxation.

Book is better organized than Slott's previous books. It is very readable. I keep it for a reference and have purchased additional copies for gifts.

Reviewer: Bill Hartman, Emporia, Kansas
This book shows you basically two options. Give most of your tax deferred assets to the government after you and your wife's death, or set it up so your kids and/or grandchildren get it. It is amazing how many financial and legal types that I have shown this too that didn't know about Stretch IRA's. Great book to teach you how to keep your hard earned dollars in the family instead of sending to the government.
Excellent, clear, focused advice on IRA

Ed Slott provides focused directions on the many types of IRAs and how to best use them to maximize the transfer of wealth. He warns about and provides examples of the many legal pitfalls that may subject the inheritance to taxes and/or probate and greatly reduce amount available for distribution to heirs.

A Stretch IRA is Ed's favorite vehicle to maintain the tax shield for as long as possible to allow compounding to work its magic.

I learned so much about inherited or stretch IRAs on the first read. Now I read selected chapters over again and really like Ed Slott's style of writing and his sincerity. A real life changer and highly recommended!
