American IRA Releases Post Separating IRA Myths and Facts

ASHEVILLE, NC / ACCESSWIRE / July 1, 2020 / What are the myths about Self-Directed IRAs that investors will want debunked? That was the subject of a recent post at American IRA, a Self-Directed IRA administration firm. The firm took to its blog to explore some of the most prevailing myths about Self-Directed IRAs, while also simultaneously debunking this myth with their own responses.

For example, one myth out there is that the Self-Directed IRA's nontraditional retirement investments are not legal within a Self-Directed IRA. This is not true. The IRS clearly outlines which assets are not to be held within a retirement account-such as collectibles, art, and fine wines. But these restrictions apply to all IRAs, not just Self-Directed IRAs; these are regulations that retirement investors in the U.S. always share.

Additionally, American IRA looked into the myths about the tremendous power that investors can have with a Self-Directed IRA. But the post detailed how a Self-Directed IRA is actually a straightforward, flexible way to plan for retirement; the same restrictions apply, but with more freedom for the investor to choose the investments that make up their retirement portfolio.

"When most people use a traditional method for retirement, such as a company 401(k), we find that there get to be some myths about the less-traditional methods," said Jim Hitt, CEO of American IRA. "The goal with this type of post is to point out those myths and clear the air for anyone considering a Self-Directed IRA."

In the post, American IRA went on to detail both sides of the equation, explaining how myths can be both positive and negative about Self-Directed IRAs-and not be quite accurate.
