Have you heard about the biggest change to the tax law effecting IRA’s since they came into existence in 1975? It occurred quietly before Christmas, buried in the news behind impeachment headlines and Iran – USA relation stress.
The SECURE ACT which stands for Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement Act of 2019, was approved by the Senate on Dec.19, 2019. In our opinion, this far-reaching bill is the largest money grab that we have seen from our government in our 30 years as financial advisers.
Join us for our upcoming workshop which will detail the changes to IRA’s and how they will impact you and your heirs.

Since our inception, Simmons Capital Group has used two value statements to explain the core values of our firm. “Honest, Objective Financial Advice.” undergirds the services that we provide to our clients. “Improving lives locally, regionally and globally.” informs the “why” behind what we do. From our very beginning, we have desired to improve the quality of life for both our clients and those who are less fortunate. Our annual philanthropy awards have become a small part of our larger charitable endeavors. As many of you know, our founder, Don Simmons travels extensively seeking to improve lives in some of the most impoverished countries of the world. At this year’s event Don will share stories of projects that Simmons Capital Group is helping to finance to alleviate poverty and exploitation, to provide fair and living wage employment in communities with rampant unemployment, to clean and care for our environment and to bring justice, peace, purpose and prosperity in communities where hope has been lost.
