It\u2019s easier to plan for and control when taxes are paid than you might think. People are often surprised to discover that taxes are one of their biggest expenses in retirement. For many, the assumption is that once they retire and their paychecks stop coming, taxes would go down.\xa0\xa0Reducing the taxes you pay in retirement means you likely will need to withdraw less money from your savings each year to cover expenses. As a result, your savings may last longer, leaving more money available to spend on things you enjoy. While most people understand this, many often fail to fully appreciate the control they could have over taxes. People who acquire large amounts of wealth often recognize that many strategies exist to control when taxes will be paid. More important is the realization that by timing when taxes are paid, opportunities arise to also control the amount of those taxes. With the planned sunsetting of the 2018 Tax Cuts and Job Acts and concern that tax rates might be rising in the future, now is an ideal time to understand the extent of your control over your taxes and how this might lead to a more confident and enjoyable lifestyle now\u2014not to mention your retirement.\xa0\xa0Plus, U.S. stock markets rose, but gains have evaporated a bit with the Fed\u2019s most recent rate hike and data pointing to a tight labor market. Central banks are also becoming more nuanced in their fight against inflation. Consumers are still out there, the economy is still moving ahead, unemployment obviously still positive, but a recession could still be on the horizon.
