The breakeven analysis shows when total dollars equal out — but which years you receive those dollars matters just as much. Claiming at 62 means more money during your go-go years (65–75), when you can actually enjoy it. Claiming at 70 means a bigger check but zero income for 4–8 years — during the years you need it most.

Key strategies that protect your retirement from hidden tax claims and market losses.
At a combined 35% tax rate, a $2.6M IRA carries a $982,000 embedded IRS claim — money that isn't yours. A Roth conversion systematically removes that claim, dollar by dollar, so every cent stays in your family.
