    The Power of a Roth IRA For Your Child

    When your child makes a little money, the IRS will view the cash in their wallet as “earned income.”   But for once, this isn’t a tax headache.   Kevin Mahoney, CFP®, who specializes in financial planning for Millennials, talks about how these small paydays will create an opportunity for you to teach your child about investing. And they’ll create an opportunity for them to experience compounding.   Then, when your child begins their adult life, they already may have a meaningful amount of money in retirement savings.   Welcome to Financially Well, the finance podcast for Millennials.
