It Started: Trump Just 'Reset' Your 401K
President Trump signed an executive order introducing the Trump IRA, a new retirement savings option designed to replace or complement the traditional 401k. The Trump IRA aims to provide easier access to retirement plans for workers without employer-sponsored options, including freelancers and gig workers, and offers a $3,000 investment match for eligible participants. The initiative is set to launch in less than seven months and will be managed through the TrumpIRA.gov website.
