About this episode
In this episode of the Weekly Wealth podcast, the focus is on understanding the Solo 401(k) plan, a valuable tool for entrepreneurs and business owners. Host David introduces a new monthly segment called "Ask the Professor," where he and his guest, Justin Chastain, will dive deeply into various financial products and concepts. Justin, who is also a financial advisor and educator, discusses the Solo 401(k) plan, highlighting its unique benefits for those who are self-employed or own a small business with no employees other than themselves. The Solo 401(k) allows for significant tax-deferred contributions and offers flexibility in investment choices, making it an attractive option for individuals with substantial cash flow. The conversation covers key aspects of the Solo 401(k), including contribution limits, which mirror those of traditional 401(k) plans but allow for higher maximum contributions, especially if you’re over 50. Justin explains that this plan is ideal for business owners who have higher income levels and seek to maximize their retirement savings. Additionally, the Solo 401(k) offers various investment options and potentially lower fees compared to traditional 401(k) plans, though it does require careful management to avoid complications, especially as the account grows. The episode wraps up with advice for business owners on how to evaluate whether a Solo 401(k) is the right choice for them and how they can get in touch with Justin for further guidance.
