⍾ Content Disclosure: No communication by The Vibes Company Inc.
("TVC"), or any of its affiliates (collectively, "Carry"), through
this website or any other medium, should be construed or is intended
to be a recommendation to purchase, sell or hold any security or
otherwise to be investment, tax, financial, accounting, legal,
regulatory or compliance advice. Any material provided is for
information purposes only, and is not intended as a recommendation,
offer, or solicitation to open a brokerage account, open a retirement
plan, engage an investment advisor or engage in any investment
strategy. The accounts, strategies and/or investments discussed in
this material may not be suitable for all investors. The
appropriateness of a particular account or investment strategy will
depend on an investor's individual circumstances and objectives.
⍏ Most Powerful Account Suitability: A Solo 401(k)'s suitability
depends on individual circumstances. This statement reflects our
opinion based on the Solo 401(k)'s combination of high contribution
limits, investment flexibility, and tax advantages for eligible
individuals. "Most powerful" in this context refers to the potential
for high contributions and tax-advantaged growth, not guaranteed
performance. The actual benefits and suitability of a Solo 401(k) vary
significantly based on individual circumstances, including income
level, age, and financial goals. Other retirement accounts may be more
appropriate in certain situations. This claim is not intended to imply
superiority for all individuals or circumstances. Qualified financial
and tax professionals should be consulted to determine the most
suitable retirement strategy for your unique situation.
⎏ Solo401(k) Eligibility Disclaimer: Eligibility for a Solo 401(k) is
subject to specific IRS requirements. Not all business owners or
individuals with side income will qualify. The maximum contribution
limit of $69,000 (or $76,500 for those age 50 and over) for 2023 is
not universally applicable and depends on factors such as your earned
income, age, and specific plan details. Please consult with a tax
professional to determine your eligibility. Tax deductions and growth
are subject to IRS rules and regulations. Withdrawals from traditional
401(k) accounts are generally taxed as ordinary income when
distributed. Borrowing from your 401(k) may have significant tax
consequences and could impact your retirement savings. Loans must be
repaid according to IRS guidelines. Individual Plan administrators are
responsible for ongoing compliance of all plans on Carry's platform.
⎑ IRA Eligibility Disclaimer: Eligibility, deductibility, and
contribution limits for Traditional and Roth IRAs depend on IRS rules,
income, and retirement plan participation. Traditional IRA withdrawals
are generally taxed as ordinary income, while qualified Roth IRA
distributions are tax-free. Early withdrawals may incur penalties.
Traditional IRAs have Required Minimum Distributions; Roth IRAs do
not. Advanced strategies like backdoor Roth and mega backdoor Roth
conversions may be available but have specific rules and potential tax
implications. Contribution limits, rules, and available strategies are
subject to change. Individuals are responsible for the ongoing
compliance of their plans with current IRS regulations. Consult a tax
professional for personalized advice on basic and advanced IRA
strategies. Carry does not provide tax or legal counsel.
⍚ Investment Options: While 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 are responsible for
ongoing compliance of all plans with Carry.
⍜ Risk and Returns: All investments involve the risk of loss, and past
performance does not guarantee future results. Investment growth or
profit is never a guarantee. Any material provided is for
informational purposes only and does not provide personalized
investment or tax advice, nor does it account for your specific
financial situation or holdings elsewhere. Investments in alternative
assets are speculative, generally illiquid and involve a higher degree
of risk. Those investors who cannot afford to lose their entire
investment should not invest in alternative assets. Before making any
financial decisions, consult with qualified legal, tax, or financial
advisors to ensure appropriateness for your individual circumstances.
