This is a new type of investment plan, to be described under Section 703(j) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Finally, there is a tax-qualified way for middle-to-upper-class men with tedious or very stressful jobs to save up for their inevitable future mid-life crisis.
A 703(j) plan allows an individual
to contribute pre-tax funds of up to $3,000 per year. Interest and capital gains earned on these funds are also competely tax-free until you withdraw them.
However, there is a federal penalty of 15%, in addition to ordinary income taxes, if the money is withdrawn for any reason other than to pay for a mid-life crisis expense. In order to avoid the penalty, you must submit proof that you have bought one of the following: (a) Brand new convertible, (b) Motorcycle together with leather jacket and helmet with flames painted on it, (c) Yacht, or (d) Diamond engagement ring for a woman at least 20 years younger than you.
Ask your employer for information about 703(j) plans today.

Wow, wish I had known about this plan before I went and bought my yacht. Sure would have been nice to use pre-tax money. Maybe I can get a note from my doctor to use Flexible Spending Account $$ for the upkeep? |
