Individual Retirement Accounts and Other Retirement Savings Plans
For many years, Congress has recognized that saving for retirement is a worthwhile social goal and should be encouraged by the government. The federal government has encouraged the growth of private pension and savings plans through the use of various tax incentives. This publication will focus mainly on individual retirement accounts (IRAs), but other plans such as simplified employee pensions (SEPs), 401-K plans, and Keogh plans will be discussed, too.Individual Retirement Accounts And Other Retirement Savings Plans
