Retirement Accounts
If you dream of a comfortable retirement, saving and making the most of your money is key. An Individual Retirement Account (IRA) is a great way to earn more and bring your retirement dreams to reality.
What is an IRA and how do they work?
An IRA stands for Individual Retirement Account. Many people mistakenly confuse an IRA to mean a financial product not insured by the NCUA or the FDIC, this is not the case. An IRA is a special designation given to many financial products to provide for tax benefits to encourage saving for your retirement. You have the choice to designate a NCUA-insured Savings Account or Certificate of Deposit as an IRA, just as you have the option of having non-insured investments such as Stocks or Mutual Funds as an IRA. Southland offers three different types of IRAs — Traditional IRA, Roth IRA, and SEP IRA.
