Part 2/9:
The term IRA stands for Individual Retirement Account. These accounts offer a means to save money specifically for retirement while benefiting from tax advantages. However, not everyone can establish an IRA. To contribute to an IRA, one must have earned income, which can come from various sources including employment or a side business. Notably, a parent can set up an IRA for their child once that child has income from approved activities, such as babysitting or lawn care.
