I Forgot to Take My RMD – What Now?- Episode 95
Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) are a fact of life for most IRA owners who are at least 72 years of age. A certain amount of money must be distributed out of the IRA each year, or the IRS imposes a strict penalty on the missed amount.

In this week’s episode of Managing Your Financial Future, podcast host Johnny Dean and Rick “The Professor” Plum, CFP® talk about ways to potentially remedy this situation, and maybe — maybe — not have to pay the penalty. Have a listen and find out more!
