The government may contribute $1,000 to a Trump Account for an eligible child—but does that mean parents should put additional savings there too?
In this video, Hunter Brockway, founder of Boca Retirement Strategies, breaks down Trump Accounts and compares them with other ways parents can save and invest for their children, including UTMA/UGMA custodial accounts, 529 plans, custodial Roth IRAs, and trusts.
You'll learn about the tax treatment of Trump Accounts, investment and withdrawal restrictions, the flexibility and potential tax advantages of taxable custodial accounts, financial aid considerations, Roth conversion opportunities, and why the right account depends on what you ultimately want the money to accomplish.
The key is separating two decisions: whether to claim an available government contribution and where to invest the additional money you're choosing to save yourself.
