Questions people usually ask first
What is the safest way to move an old 401(k)?
Usually a direct rollover, but Greg reviews the details before money moves.
Can I roll a 401(k) into an annuity directly?
Sometimes the first step is an IRA review. The right path depends on your goals, liquidity, and overall fit.
Will I owe taxes on a rollover?
Not usually on a direct rollover, but cash-outs and indirect moves can create taxes or penalties.
How long does a rollover usually take?
Anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the plan and paperwork.
