Does the ShareBuilder $4 trade count as a contribution to a Roth IRA? |
Does the ShareBuilder $4 buy count as a contribution to a Roth IRA? I'm above the AGI that allows contributions to a Roth, but I recently transfered my Roth to ShareBuilder, so I had more flexiblity with the investment. Will I be penalized by the IRS for paying the $4 per trade (if it counts as a contribution) since I'm not allowed to contribute to the Roth now? I realize their Standard and Advantage Plans do count as contributions, so I avoided them in hopes of just paying the automatic $4/buy avoids a contribution cost (and associated penalty). The transaction fees/commission to buy and sell do not count as contributions to your IRA. As long as you don't bring in any new money to your IRA, you are fine. The money that is in there right now is made up of previous years' contributions and you are allowed to do whatever you want with it. Buying and selling within your IRA is OK because the $4 commission comes out of the money that is already in there. Hope that helps! And lucky you for not being able to invest, hehehe!! :) |
