  • For high-income earners and business owners, cash balance plans offer a significant opportunity to save for retirement while maximizing tax benefits. Managing Director Larry Lubin and Case Design Specialist Kevin Bewley, CLU® recently sat down to discuss how these plans stand out. Unlike a 401(k), which has a contribution limit of about $70,000 annually, cash balance plans fall under defined benefit rules and allow contributions of $300,000 to $400,000 or more, depending on individual circumstances. These larger contributions grow tax-deferred, creating the potential for substantial retirement savings over time.
