Whole America is in shock to learn the size of Individual
Retirement Account (IRA) of the Republican Presidential candidate
Mitt Romney. Some experts have estimated the value of his IRA over
$100 Millions. Pundits are scratching their head, how can it be?
Isn't there a contribution limit? How can one amass $100 millions
in a retirement account? Did Mitt Romney violate laws? Why didn't
IRS check? Along with the tax debate, from media reports, it
appears to me that people would probably be not so shocked if money
was in the taxable account. But because money is in an IRA, people
want to know how it was done. If it was done legally than they can
also use the same method and shelter their assets. It is a great
opportunity to learn. Almost $17M in long-term capital gains, more
than $3M in dividends and deduction of $4.5M is what made his tax
rate to drop. Set aside the politics for a moment, whatever he did
to have such large deduction, it worked well with the IRS, a lesson
to be learned. There is even a bigger lesson than deductions - he
didn't created much in the ordinary income that is taxed at higher
rate; and that amount is also very well structured. Hence, I think
the whole tax return is very good example for all of us to learn
how to structure ordinary income, how to take deductions and reduce
taxable income.
