Cash balance plans
Employer-sponsored retirement plans, such as cash balance plans, allow substantial pretax contributions with long-term benefits.4 If you’re a business owner, contributing significantly to a cash balance plan can reduce your current taxable income, potentially moving you to a lower tax bracket and increasing your net cash flow. By maximizing contributions to this plan, you not only save for retirement aggressively but also benefit from immediate tax deductions.Think of the current estate tax breaks as a limited-time offer.
