Lots of information in this one. I wonder if it could even be broken up to cover the different retirement options to allow the learner to focus on certain ones.
It would be helpful to show slides when the instructor is giving an example. It is a bit challenging trying to follow when there is no visual.
This instructor organizes the material really well. Dry topic but I prefer these in-depth ones. Best comprehensive instruction in my opinion.
Course was great. Nice to have examples, but the examples are not displayed on the slides so they are of limited use and hard to follow.
This is a good course if you want to determine various options when looking into retirement accounts and ROTH IRAs.
This is a fine basic overview of IRA's, but it needs to be updated. For example, the 70.5 RMD rule is now 72.
very informative, will come back to this for references. Would like for it to be updated for 2019 year though.
Course material need to be in one file. Otherwise it was a clear presentation of the required facts.
great course, thank you for the detail. would have loved to see a more comprehensive study guide.
Good overview especially for individuals new to the industry. Goes into good relevant strategies.
The course was good but it would be nice to have a PDF with more detail than a glossary/index.
Good detail and overview of these topics. Definitely a lot of info packed into this course!
Well presented in-depth analysis of all things retirement. Clear and understandable.
It would be beneficial to release the wrong answers for the final exam.
Information and questions are in relation to 2018 IRS regs and filings
Would have liked to seen examples rather than just hear about them.
It was a very factual course and presented straight forward.
