Lesson 2: Pay taxes now, smile later: Converting to a Roth IRA might hurt upfront, but the tax-free future gains are the ultimate flex.
Lesson 3: Use your checkbook like a pro: Want speed and control? Add “checkbook control” to your IRA and skip the custodian paperwork dance.
Lesson 4: Stack strategies like Legos: Combine self-directed IRAs, HSAs, and Solo 401(k)s to build an investment powerhouse.
Lesson 5: Your cousin’s cool, your kid’s not: Family matters when investing—IRS rules say no direct lineage can benefit from IRA assets.
Lesson 6: The 1% don’t gamble—they plan: The rich aren’t just lucky; they stack strategies, stay liquid, and due diligence like their lives depend on it.
Lesson 7: If you won’t do the homework, don’t take the test: Self-directed IRAs demand active learning—if you’re not up for it, stick to index funds.
