Did you know that for most people, an IRA is their biggest problem asset? It doesn’t matter whether it is a traditional IRA or a Roth IRA.  Well, here is a fact that you ought to know about: There are significant tax traps to IRAs. Not understanding these issues could cost you a lot of money! And tax issues aren’t even the biggest problems with qualified retirement plans! Other issues could actually destroy your family.  Rex Hogue graduated from Texas Tech University receiving his B.A.. He worked as a business specialist and managed an office for Business Investment Group, specializing in the merger and acquisition of privately held companies. He later founded a financial consulting firm.
