Are assets in a self directed IRA protected from creditors or bankruptcy?

Yes Yes


Can creditors garnish wages in Florida?

Yes, Florida allows wage garnishment by a judgment creditor.


If you are sued for a credit card that was charged off in 2000 can they garnish your wages in Florida?

Yes. If you are sued and judgment awarded against, your wages can be garnished. Well, sort of... Florida is what is known as a "debtor friendly" state. Assets that can be attached by creditors are limited.For example, wage garnishment for the head of household.. the first $500 is exempt. Anything above the $500 can be garnished only with the written consent of the debtor. As you can see this makes it pretty difficult for the creditor. Marital bank accounts cannot be garnished. Under Florida law they are protected by the Tenancy By the Entirety Statute. Other bank accounts can be garnished, but with strict limitations. To find out all the property exempt from creditors, search "Florida Bankruptcy Exemptions."


What's the difference between a tradition IRA and a Roth IRA?

An IRA has tax-deductible contributions, a Roth IRA does not. IRAs have age requirements (or else you face a penalty), Roth IRAs do not. IRAs are open to every income level, Roth IRAs require household income to be under $150,000.


Are non recourse loans legal in Florida for Self Directed IRAs?

Federal IRS rules and regulations dictate what is legal for self-directed IRAs, not states. Of course non-recourse loans are fine, but there are tax consequences to your IRA and the transaction that you are leveraging your IRA with the loan that is being taken out. Consult a tax professional that understands self-directed IRA's to further clarify.

Can you keep your IRA when you file for bankruptcy?

Absolutely. It being exempt from creditors is a main benefit of qualified retirement accounts. Not "absolutely." Properly established IRAs are protected up to one million dollars, and a bankruptcy court can extend that higher. Any money that you withdraw from an IRA, unless it is all placed in another IRA or a 401(k) or other qualified retirement plan, is not protected.
