Series 24: Roth IRAs

Taken from our Series 24 Online Guide

Roth IRAs

The primary difference between a Roth IRA and a traditional IRA is that individuals cannot deduct contributions to their Roth IRAs from their taxes. In other words, the contributions are made with after-tax dollars. The big advantage of a Roth IRA is that participants do not have to pay annual taxes on the earnings made in the account, and the contributions can be withdrawn tax-free. Earnings can be withdrawn tax free beginning five years after the year for which the first contribution was made to the Roth IRA and if the taxpayer is 59 1/2 years or older. Earnings that do not meet these requirements will be subject to penalty and taxation.

The following rules hold for Roth IRAs:

• Contributions to an IRA cannot be deducted from income for tax purposes.
• Contributions are limited to earned income.

TESTIMONIALS

What are people saying?

Just passed the Series 24 on my first attempt. Not an easy exam so put the time in. I used the Video Lectures and the Exam Simulator from Solomon. Great resources of information!

Shawn McClain, Natixis, Charlotte NC

I watched the videos twice, took notes from them, and took hundreds of practice problems. The test simulator was the best part of the program. I found it helpful that you could go back and look at the questions you missed and use them to help refine what to study. I definitely would recommend the program. Get 85%+ on the practice and you should pass the 24.

I used Solomon to study for the 26 and most recently the 24. The material is layered in way that makes it manageable to digest and the instructor response time and explanations are outstanding. I passed both on the first attempt!

Gus Velleco, Allstate, Charleston, SC

I took another vendors 24 course but it did not compare to how Solomon Exam Prep for Series 24 prepared me. The material and practice exams, especially the timed exams, were broken up by sections, similar to the FINRA Exam. This really helped in allowing me to understand which section(s) I needed to spend more time on/hit harder. Thank you Solomon!!!

I wanted to let you know I passed the exam [Series 24] this morning! The practice exams were invaluable. Thank you for your extra help and suggestions. I have recommended this to two of my co-workers who will be taking the Series 7 this year. I will say, the 24 was worded so tricky. And so much irrelevant info put into the questions. I had to write down pieces of the question to get the gist of what it was asking. Very purposfully confusing. But it's over and I'm thankful for your product. Thx again

Karmen Richards, Multi Financial Securities, Greensboro, NC

I passed my Series 24 with two weeks of nearly full-time study, using the textbook, the online class, and the exam simulator. The textbook was very readable and helpful in providing complete explanations, as well as helpful memorization tips. The online class and pre-recorded sessions were crucial to get through all of the material and put it in relative context. It was helpful to be able to have questions answered instantly and via email afterward. The online simulator questions were just like the exam questions, and the immediate feedback function was essential for learning from the practice quizzes and exam. I needed every minute of my study and practice time to count, and Solomon Exam Prep made it possible. Thank you!
