No communication by The Vibes Company Inc. (“TVC”) or its affiliates, including Carry Advisors LLC, Carry Tax LLC and Global Carry LLC (together, “Carry”), should be construed as investment, tax, legal, or accounting advice, or as a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security.

⑂ IRA Contribution limits and tax treatment for Traditional and Roth IRAs depend on income, IRS rules, and participation in other plans.

⍏ “Most powerful” reflects an opinion based on the Solo 401(k)’s contribution limits, tax benefits, and investment flexibility. Benefits vary by individual. This does not imply universal superiority. Other retirement accounts may be more appropriate depending on age, income, or goals. Consult a qualified financial or tax professional. Solo 401(k) eligibility is governed by IRS rules and Solo 401(k) accounts are available through multiple providers.
⎏ Solo 401(k) eligibility depends on IRS rules. Not all business owners or side-income earners qualify. 2026 limits ($72,000 or $80,000 with catch-up) depend on income and plan design. Tax benefits and loan features are governed by IRS regulations. Plan administrators—not Carry—are responsible for compliance. Consult a tax advisor.
⍚ Investment Options: While Carry Solo 401(k) and IRA plans may offer diverse investment options, including alternative assets, certain restrictions may apply. Some investments may be prohibited or result in penalties. Individual plan administrators, not Carry, are responsible for ongoing compliance of all plans with Carry.
