The session also opens with a moment of gratitude for our veterans and active-duty military members, including Balance team members Adam and Shaun.

A chance to move money from pre-tax to Roth at potentially lower tax rates before 2026.

📌 Capital Gains & Dividends:
Know what you’ve realized this year and how it affects your tax bracket, IRMAA, and your overall plan.

📌 Charitable Giving:
Use donor-advised funds, QCDs, or appreciated securities to support causes and lower taxes.
