Today I talk about an article published by ProPublica that has since been picked up by just about all of the financial media outlets. In the midst of going through IRS documents released by a major leak, ProPublica found that Peter Thiel, one of the founders of Paypal, bought shares of Paypay within his Roth IRA in 1999 and has since grown his account to be worth $5 billion. Since those gains are within a Roth IRA, Mr. Thiel is not going to have to pay taxes on ANY of his gains and essentially will be getting his $5 billion with no taxes. Be sure to check out today’s episode to see how he did it and if you can too!
