I need to move my 401k into an IRA and am looking for some guidance from you guys. (I live in the US, PA to be more specific). I do not work for any company at this stage.
I currently have some money in a 401k from my previous employer and I must move it fairly quickly into an IRA.
The things that are important to me:
- Low fees. Fees eat into your profit margin like there is no tomorrow
- I want to be able to trade anything. Stocks, fonds, ETF, Foreign stocks etc
- I also want to be able trade in general so functionality in that regard is appreciated
- I also want to be able to hold crypto and trade crypto
Given that I would love your input on what your think good IRA options are and why.
Lol, these comments...
So here's the deal. An IRA can invest in almost anything except collectibles. See https://www.irs.gov/retirement-plans/retirement-plans-faqs-regarding-iras-investments So you can buy, stocks, bonds, crypto, real estate, businesses, etc.
BUT!
The vast majority of IRAs are set up with traditional brokerage houses like BAML, TD Ameritrade, etc. Those are the ones with low fees.
So you could open/rollover your IRA at a brokerage and buy your stocks, bonds, ETFs, foreign stocks (or at least their ADRs). So far though, I don't think any bitcoin ETFs have made it through the regulatory hurdles to get listed. I know I saw a headline that Bloomberg wants to bring one to market, so that may be a possibility somewhat soon.
There's also the news that the NASDAQ is looking into crypto, so that may be a possibility in the short to medium term future as well.
If you want your IRA to hold cryptos directly, then you are talking about an IRA not held at a brokerage account. These are called self-directed IRAs. But these violate your low fees rule. Typically the administrators charge something like 2% of assets under management (AUM). But you can really buy anything. A common strategy is to open an LLC opened by your IRA so you can then hold title to things in the LLC's name rather than the IRA's name. It makes for smoother transactions that way since people get all weird when you try to buy something in an IRA's name.
Another issue with self-directed IRAs is that you can't do anything yourself. This is to prevent self-dealing which is a giant no-no from the IRS. The point of the IRA (and all qualified funds like 401ks, 403bs, etc) is that the money is set aside for the future and you have not taken possession of the funds. That's why there's a tax deferral on it. So in order to do any transactions in the self-directed IRA you have to tell the administrator to do it for you. Those extra steps are, in my opinion, super annoying, take a lot of time, and cause those higher fees.
But if you want to investigate self-directed IRAs, there are a bunch of administrators out there. One that I used to have dealings with was https://www.trustetc.com/ - this isn't an endorsement, just letting you know they exist.
Hope that helps.

If you take money personally out of the llc that is owned by the ira then that is self dealing and/or a distribution. It doesn’t matter where the llc is located.

On an audit, the IRS would probably rule that this transaction is an early distribution, which would mean that you would be subject to the 10% early distribution penalty (unless you somehow qualify for one of the exceptions to it). Even worse, the IRS could claim that the entire arrangement is not an IRA in the first place, in which case the entire amount in your IRA would suddenly be taxable income. These are dangerous waters. Consult a financial advisor (CPA or if the sums are large enough a lawyer who specializes in these types of situations). Not for the faint at heart.

Are you sure you want an IRA? If you have a choice, which it appears you do, a Solo 401k might be worth checking out. They are different from your employer provided 401k plans. Solo 401k plans are for business owners. Even small or new businesses qualify, but you must have proof of business ownership (LLC does the trick). The perks of Solo 401k are substantially better than IRA (roth or traditional). Solo 401k plans are self-directed. I'm semi confident there is a custodian on the market that covers crypto investments. If this sounds new to you, please compare IRA vs Solo 401k before going further down the IRA path.

I’m not a expert to be clear, but I’ve learned from people in the industry. Most notably Ben Williams (owner of www.iselfdirect.com). They specialize in self directed IRAs and Solo 401ks. Here are the biggest reasons that I know of.
Contribution Limit
IRA - $5500 / year
Solo 401k - +$50,000 / year
This is a no brainer for anyone who wants to invest more than $5500 per year in tax advantaged accounts.
Both offer pre and post tax options.
Borrowing period
IRA - 60 days to pay back any loan from account
Solo 401k - 5 years to pay back loans from account
This is a huge benefit if you are a savvy investor who knows how to leverage spread opportunities with loans from you retirement accounts. This, plus the contribution limit make Solo 401ks the absolute best tax advantages account for entrepreneurs and business owners. It can do anything (correct me if I’m wrong) an IRA can do with these 2 huge advantages.
Security
IRA - Falls under State Law protection
Solo 401k - Falls under Federal Law protection
There are more advantages than just these, but this list is strong enough to consider Solo 401ks as the way to go for sure!
Once again, I’m not an expert, but if you want to talk to one, feel free to contact www.islefdirect.com. They can answer all your questions and assist in implementation. Hope this helped!

@knircky has set 100.000 STEEM bounty on this post!
What is a bounty exactly?
A bounty is money sent to a post to be distributed to the users commenting on it. It provides a way to reward users directly and works in addition to the steem/sbd they receive from the blockchain. It works independently of SteemPower.
You create a bounty by sending any amount of sbd/steem to @steem-bounty together with a post-url in the memo.
How can I earn a bounty Users are then competing for the bounty by writing their answers to the post in comments that will achieve upvotes from the community and especially the bounty creator. The money of the bounty gets distributed to all top level comments of the post at the same time when the post is paid out (7 Days after it was written). How much everyone gets depends on the votes the comments received. The sender of the bounties votes are weighted higher so that she decideds where 80% of the bounty money goes and all other votes determine the rest.@steem-bounty does all of this for you automatically. You can use this service to automatically pay out a challenge, ask a hard question or simply to reward the people that interact with you.

How to Add Bitcoins to Your IRA
In order to invest in Bitcoins for your retirement, you’ll need to have a self-directed IRA. Self-directed IRAs permit diversifying Roth or Traditional retirement assets beyond the usual stocks, bonds, mutual funds and certificates of deposit. They permit investors to hold real estate, tax lien certificates, promissory notes, gold and silver, private placement securities and more, as long as they can find a custodian to manage their account. Bitcoins fall into this category of nontraditional investment. https://www.rothira.com/invest-bitcoin-roth-ira
You will probably end up going with a company from this list.

It's a huge amount. In my personal opinion the main logic success of crypto world when the coins price decreases, buy many coins as possible. There is a possibility of getting more profits afterward. But you do not lose your hope. Waiting for the right time. Right now you may invest Bitcoin, Ethereum because its very profitable coins in the world. Wish you best of luck.

Bitcoin ira or Ethereum Ira should be considered as they are both generally accepted for transactions.
Why utilize a Retirement Account to Invest in Cryptocurrencies?
When buying digital forms of money, for example, Bitcoins, with a Self-Directed IRA or Solo 401(k) Plan, all pay and picks up produced by your pre-assess retirement account speculation would by and large stream once again into the retirement account impose conceded or tax-exempt on account of a Roth IRA. Rather than paying duty on the additions of the crypto speculation, charge is paid just at a later date or never by any means, on account of a Roth IRA, leaving the crypto venture to become unhindered without tax.

I would look into forming an IRA with MOTIF. The users build funds, and other users can buy-in; it's like building your own ETF except the basket of funds is chosen by the group. I am not associated with them, but you can put together "thematic funds" like Crypto, marijuana stocks, green stocks, etc.
at some point I may look to join some of the creative funds that they have. It's worth a look, and as an IRA it will satisfy the government requirements. I still would not put all my money there. I use TD Ameritrade for my primary IRA - but I would consider dropping 5 - 10 % into Motif, just for fun and appreciation.
Best of luck with your 401K rollover!

Well, their costs are quite low. One of the lowest according to him. And yes they have an office in Pennsylvania.
Also, they offer a bonus when you are rolling over from an existing 401(k) account. He wasn't rolling over though so there was no bonus for him.
So i did a little digging online to find out how much they offer and i found this -

There are several companies offering products. IMO I would rather be in control. You can do this by self directing your ira, and then following those laws for crypto in self directed ira. Sorry for no specific advice, but I do know about self directing ira funds into real estate deals. It's easy, so I'm guessing it's even easier for investing in crypto. For real estate, you just can't manage, and can't do repairs yourself for rental properties in a self directed ira.

First, figure out if you can get your funds into a Roth IRA so it can grow tax free (google Backdoor Ira if your reported income exceeds the limit or depending on the amount you’re transferring). Most brokerage at this point cannot give you direct access to cryptos, you can only invest in GBTC or equities that are exposed to cryptos like ICE or SQ. I suggest motifinvesting.com to build a cheap diversified portfolio that is exposed to crypto if you want to be a long term holder with little trading. I’ve seen ads for bitcoinira.com but have no experience with it to give an honest opinion. Otherwise for more trading, you probably want to go with a traditional low cost brokerage like scottstrade. They just aren’t crypto friendly yet but keep in mind you can always transfer funds later, so maybe split it 50/50 between motif and scottstrade to get what you want.

Let me being clear on this: You want to hire for a IRA option to invest in crypto. As i have understood untill now, one of the benfits of an IRA applyment is get some deductions when you pay contributions. In my opinion you must divide the amount and use a half to invest in Crypto and the other half use it for a IRA. So, you will get a good bitcoin reserve where you can use a significant percentage to invest in good stock, and then, with the resultant gain you will deposit on the IRA, where you deposited previously the half. Once you made this all the times you want to get a good retirement plan, you will be done...
And the better part of this is: You can administrate the money better than a third part service...

@knircky If you are looking for a good return on your investment you are already a user of steemit and you know this will work for long time as well ,you have good amount of steem power in this account, many good investors had invested there money and getting 30+ APR.
The simple was to get guarantee return is to delegate steem power to Bots, i am not saying to me but here there are many Bots Who offers 100% return like i do , you should try this service with small amount of delegation if you like the return you can increase any time, At the current time the steem rate is low so it will benefit you more than before or you can wait for a good time when it is good for buying more steems , thanks hope you give a thought to this as well.

I also recommend that you consider DPOS systems such as Bitshares, BridgeCoin, SmartCash, Lisk and Ark, even Komodo. These help as income generating assets in the interum of making cains while learning to trade better..

A bounty is money sent to a post to be distributed to the users commenting on it.
How to Add Bitcoins to Your IRA
In order to invest in Bitcoins for your retirement, you’ll need to have a self-directed IRA. Self-directed IRAs permit diversifying Roth or Traditional retirement assets beyond the usual stock.
Someone must be in the industry or just did some serious research for the bounty! Either way, I'm glad to see someone else bring up the Solo 401k. IMO this is probably the most important aspect of this post. Most people default to IRA's without ever know about the Solo 401k option

You are no longer working for that employer, as you have yold on your post you can transfer the 401(k) to an IRA to take advantage of the higher education-expense exception to the early distribution penalty available for a distribution from an IRA that is not available for a distribution from a 401(k). There is no minimum time that the funds must remain in the IRA before making a distribution from the IRA. You are not required to "pay back" any money withdrawn from an IRA. If you choose to, the only way to put money back into an IRA is to roll over some or all of the money to another IRA or back to the original IRA within 60 days, and only one IRA distribution from any of your IRA accounts can be rolled over in a 12-month period.
When you make the distribution, the Form 1099-R will show an early distribution. After entering the Form 1099-R into TurboTax, TurboTax will give you the opportunity to indicate the amount paid for qualified higher education expenses in the same year as the distribution. TurboTax will show this amount on Form 5329 line 2 with code 08 as an amount exempt from the early-distribution penalty. Be sure to retain records showing the amount paid for education expenses in case the IRS questions the exception.

Coinbase is considering a Cryptocurrency ETF (http://fortune.com/2018/03/06/coinbase-bitcoin-cryptocurrency-fund/).
Coinbase has been called "The Goldman Sachs of Cryptocurrency". This looks like an intriguing idea. Let Coinbase figure out how to time the crypto market. The waters are too shark infested right now.
So a possible idea is to move your 401(k) to Fidelity or Schwab, park the funds there until Coinbase makes a move like that. Or another rumor is that Coinbase is going to do an IPO. That's one train that's worth riding, in my opinion. Anyway, having your money parked in FIdelity or Schwab gives you a lot of flexibility.
It's a bit like a casino right now. Don't bet everything on double zero.

It is simply better to go with a firm that boasts as many positive reviews from its current clients as possible. Trusted review authorities such as the BBB Better Business Bureau, BCA Business Consumer Alliance, and Trustlink are most important. It is also good to consider whatever feedback is available from reputable websites including Yelp, Complaint Board, and YP. This will speak volumes about the customer service and level of quality from these firms.

I tried to do exactly that through Charles Schwab about a year ago right before the big boom of crypto hitting mainstream media. They really panicked... I asked if there was a way to do my entire 401K in Ethereum. They sounded very concerned: "Who told you about Crypto?" "Where are you getting this information from?" I simply explained that I invest in stocks daily but I really feel that my best gains would lie in cryptocurrency because a recession would be inevitable since we are 2 years past the cycle. The person on the phone freaked the hell out. They really did not like what I had to say. Sorry this doesn't really answer your question but its obviously not at Charles Schwab.

Many "crypto" IRA's only let you invest in cryptos and a few just do Bitcoin. However if you want an IRA that does cryptos as well as traditional investments like stocks, bonds, real estate, precious metals etc. I recommend something like First Digital IRA or another great one is Broad Financial

Don't get confused. My name is Ira, no relation to Individual Retirement Account.
My recommendation is that you definitely move your 401(k) to an IRA, but that you hold off on picking a specific investment related to cryptocurrency until the market matures. First move the money to Fidelity or Schwab. Visit one of their branch locations and let them do the heavy lifting of transferring the funds. After that, you can look around. I would not jump into the first hot idea. You may regret that later when perhaps you find that it wasn't such a hot idea after all.
Wall Street has recently bought into the crypto mania. I've noticed that there are IRAs that require a $20K minimum just to buy crypto when you can do this yourself using an exchange such as Coinbase. There will be more and better choices in a year or so because there's a lot of hot money floating around and the opportunity for Wall Street to harvest fees is too great.
So just be patient and do your homework.
Ira

Hope this might help,
If you roll into a Roth IRA, you’ll owe taxes on the rolled amount. If you want to rollover your funds without incurring taxes, stick with a traditional IRA. After that check out best IRA accounts to find a provider that aligns with your needs. Then ask your 401(k) plan for a “direct rollover.”
The 401(k) funds will enter the IRA as cash, so you’ll need to invest the money.

Please what is an IRA?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

It is short for Individual Retirement Arrangement, a way to save money for retirement. Your contributions to an IRA are not taxed now, but instead are taxed when you reach the age at which you would be more likely to retire, which is age 59 1/2.
So to "encourage" you to save the money until then, if you withdraw money from an IRA before age 59 1/2 you will be hit with a 10% early withdrawal penalty on any money you withdraw from the account. See IRS Form 5329 for the gory details. There are also some exceptions to the penalty, such as medical emergencies or to buy your first home, but you need to read the details to see if you qualify.
Also the IRS wants you to actually withdraw from your IRA and not just leave it in your account so that it's never taxed. To "encourage" you, when you turn 70 1/2 you are REQUIRED (it's called an RMD or Required Minimum Distribution) to withdraw a portion of your money (it's determined by some actuarial tables they have) over your life expectancy (more or less).
Hope this helps.
