Jack Phelps, founder of The Relaxing Retirement Coach, discusses the passing of an IRA to a beneficiary, and evaluates the various options available during this period.

Wellesley, MA – August 15, 2011 – Jack Phelps, founder of The Relaxing Retirement Coach, a Retirement Coaching company, recently published a blog on his website (http://www.theretirementcoach.com) urging beneficiaries to know all of their options before they inherit an IRA. The blog, titled “Landmines When Inheriting Your IRA,” notes that many beneficiaries make uninformed choices, which can cost them hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes.

Jack Phelps writes, “Imagine that.  You work your entire life.  You diligently save your money.  You select sound investments.  You do everything right and with one phone call to an uninformed company representative, 35-40% of your hard-earned savings is gone in one shot!”
