In this September Retirement Update, Chris Cyr, CPA, CFP®, shares several important year-end tax planning reminders, including estimated taxes, required minimum distributions, charitable giving and Roth conversions.
Chris also weighs in on the debate over social media restrictions for children and takes a look at the economy, housing, AI spending, Nvidia, stock market valuations and what Cyr Financial is watching as we begin looking ahead toward 2027.
Most importantly, we discuss why retirement planning isn't simply about making money when markets are good — it's about preparing your retirement for the periods when markets, taxes or both become much less cooperative.
