@c_buildingquietwealth: Most people believe you need earned income to invest for retirement. A lot of SAHMs sit out for years, watching their spouse’s accounts grow while their own retirement falls behind or never gets started at all. Then life happens - a divorce, a medical issue, and they’re starting from zero. There’s actually a fix for this that almost nobody talks about. It’s called a spousal IRA. If your spouse has earned income and you file taxes jointly, the IRS lets you fund a retirement account in your own name, even with zero income of your own. Your account. Your money. Your name on it. Here’s how it works: •Your working spouse’s income covers the contribution, so you don’t need a paycheck of your own •You open the account in your own name, not your partner’s •You contribute every year you file jointly •It stays yours no matter what happens to the marriage If my mom had known about this before her divorce, those tough years after would have looked a lot different. Staying home shouldn’t cost a woman her own future. A spousal IRA means you keep building wealth in your name, on your terms, so you’re never left depending on how things turn out. ➡️send this to a stay-at-home mom who deserves a safety net in her own name *Not financial advice.
