Retire Secure For Professors and TIAA Participants
Webinar #1: 9:30 – 11:30 AM
Optimal Distribution and Estate Planning
for Your TIAA and Other Retirement Accounts
In this session you’ll discover…
- How Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) of Inherited IRAs and TIAA and other retirement plans were so advantageous under the old law in sharp contrast to the onerous rules in the SECURE Act.
- How SECURE Act and SECURE Act 2.0 changes could impact your family and your legacy.
- How to ensure financial security for the surviving spouse, and potentially save hundreds of thousands to pass on to your heirs after the SECURE Act.
- The details of the best (and most flexible) estate plan for married professors known as Lange’s Cascading Beneficiary Plan™.
- We’ll solve one of the great mysteries of academic life: What is the most advantageous way to get your money out of TIAA when you retire?
- You’ll learn about the distribution rules and options at retirement for Traditional TIAA, IRAs, and other retirement plans and what, if anything, you should do about it now.
We’ll also dive into Trust planning strategies, including…
- The pros and cons of having your heirs inherit your TIAA, IRA, and other retirement assets directly versus through a trust.
- Why, under certain circumstances, naming a charitable trust as the beneficiary of TIAA, IRAs, and retirement assets might be an excellent strategy for altruistic professors.
- The growing popularity of the “I don’t want my no-good son-in-law to inherit one red cent of my money” trust.
- A rarely discussed strategy―Who Gets What? evaluates the tax consequences of leaving different asset types to children who are in differing tax brackets. We will cover a similar strategy for charitable giving. By optimizing your strategies using who gets what analysis, you could save hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes.

Webinar #2: 12:30 – 2:30 PM
Roth IRA, Roth 403(b), and Roth 401(a) Contributions and Conversions for Professors
In this session you’ll discover…
- The peer-reviewed math and optimal timing for Roth IRA conversions.
- The back-door Roth IRA.
- How professors born between 1951 and 1959 can profit from SECURE Act 2.0.
- How to move a portion of your taxable investments (TIAA, IRAs, and other retirement plans) to the tax-free investing environment (529 plans, your children’s Roth IRAs, Roth 403(b)s, and more). This shift could potentially be more valuable to your children than making Roth IRA conversions in your own accounts.
- Capitalizing on Roth IRA conversions through 2025 while favorable income tax rates remain and before the 2017Tax Cut and Jobs Act’s Sunset Provisions take effect in 2026 and tax rates go up substantially.
- How you could benefit from the new rules allowing employers to contribute to an employee’s Roth retirement plan. (Previously, employers were only allowed to contribute to tax-exempt Traditional plans.)
- We will also examine the timing synergy between when you begin taking Social Security and making Roth conversions.
And we’ll also cover advanced concepts for Roth IRA conversions including…
- How to transition after-tax dollars in retirement plans to a Roth IRA at no cost—potentially saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes down the road.
- How to convert an Inherited retirement plan to a Roth at your beneficiary’s tax rate, not your own, after you die. (This is a little-known strategy with big tax savings for those who qualify.)
