Inflation Can Wreck Retirement

According to a recent study by Allianz Life Insurance, 54% of American workers have cut or stopped their retirement contributions to combat the rising prices of inflation. With inflation being at a 40-year high, many taxpayers  are also taking early withdrawals from those same accounts to make ends meet. 

Inflation can affect a great deal of decisions for taxpayers including when to make tax payments. If the IRS underpayment rate is lower than the US inflation rate, it may pay to wait until a later date with dollars that are worth considerably less. Those same tax dollars could be used for many other things including charity, real estate strategies or other retirement planning.
