I am 59 years old and currently working on a contract basis for a company. I plan on staying there for the next 6 years and I have been investing in a Roth IRA for the past 20+ years.
I also need to get as many tax deductions as possible to lessen my tax payments as a contractor. I am trying to establish what my contribution limits are, I have access to a simple IRA, which I know can be over $15,000 and the Roth IRA is $8000.
My question is: how do I work both of them together? If I put $8000 in the Roth IRA, am I done? Or am I allowed to still make a contribution to the simple IRA to help with the taxes?
I have too much money sitting in one account that is liquid, so I would also like to get as much money as possible into an IRA-type account so I am not paying capital gains.
Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks
