This achievement highlights Pistole's dedication to offering critical retirement income planning information to his clients and community.

In a press interview, Brad Pistole [https://guaranteedsafemoney.com/about-us/] underscored the significance of understanding IRMAA and its potential impacts on Social Security benefits and Medicare premiums.

"This is critical retirement income planning information. This course is a must," Pistole said, highlighting the necessity of education and proactive planning to avoid unnecessary taxes and surcharges.

The IRMAA certified planner program offers comprehensive training through 18 modules, covering Medicare's IRMAA and its effects on social security. Participants learn investment strategies that mitigate IRMAA and can enhance their careers as financial professionals. The course is self-paced, allowing up to 12 months for completion.

Pistole highlights the importance of age 63 in financial planning. "From age 63 on, it's going to affect you for the rest of your retirement life. For me, ignorance is not bliss. Ignorance will lead to destruction. Ignorance will lead to paying tens of thousands of dollars in unnecessary taxes."

He advocates for strategies such as Roth conversions and cash value life insurance to mitigate IRMA taxes, stressing the need for individuals to educate themselves about taxes to ensure a low-tax bracket lifestyle.

"The number one thing that will separate you from the retirement of your dreams is taxes," Pistole said. "Remember, it's not how much you make. It's how much you keep that counts."
