The #1 Roth Conversion Mistake That Costs Retirees
Most people missed the first Roth conversion window. History is offering a rare second chance — but not a long one.
With today's tax rates extended, IRA Millionaires have a brief stretch of historically low brackets left. When it closes, the math changes: higher rates, bigger required distributions, and fewer conversion opportunities each year you wait.
Craig Wear, CFP®, has spent 15+ years helping more than 3,000 families with $1M+ in IRAs plan Roth conversions — helping them avoid a projected $10B+ in lifetime taxes. His new book, Roth Conversion Reset, is the step-by-step playbook:
Lock in today's low rates
Avoid RMD surprises at 73
Protect your spouse from survivor taxes
Keep more for your heirs

There are two new residents settling into Jungle of the Apes at the Saint Louis Zoo!
Western lowland gorillas Gus and Bukavu recently arrived at the Zoo and are already making themselves at home. The pair has been spotted playing, exploring enrichment activities, foraging, and relaxing in their spacious indoor habitat.
Visitors may catch a glimpse of Gus and Bukavu in the indoor public viewing area, although sightings may vary as they continue adjusting to their new surroundings. Once they're fully settled, the two gorillas will be introduced to the Zoo's resident bachelor gorilla troop. 🦍💚

Members of the Saint Louis University Women's Basketball team recently spent the day volunteering at Almost Home, a United Way-funded organization that supports young mothers and their families.
The student-athletes helped organize clothing donations, assemble furniture, stock the food pantry, and toured the facility to learn more about the organization's mission of helping young moms build brighter futures.
Their day of service highlighted the power of community involvement and teamwork, making a meaningful impact on local families in need. 💙
