The first was "tax-free crypto investing forever with Roth dollars," stated Ramirez, referring to Roth IRAs, but "more than that it can be an effective way of lowering overall portfolio risk" because IRAs are tax-deferred, which allows people to have "better writeouts" for market highs and lows.
Ramirez indicated that confidence in Social Security to provide capital for retirement is low. "It's our responsibility to save for our retirement. We ought to have the freedom of choice to invest how we see fit to get there," he added.
