1. Retirement far off. I was thinking when I retire I would roll my 403b into an ira. My understanding this is tax free to do as long as I roll it over within 60 days. I’m I right?

Yes and you’ll most likely have way more investment options. However, if you’re asking this question then you may want to find someone reputable within your area to help you out.

Excellent and great job educating yourself long before retirement.

30 years ago the Roth IRA didn’t exist. Who knows what will be the case 30 years from now, but you can directly roll it over into an IRA which helps avoid the 60-day indirect rollover rules under today’s laws.

No need to think about this now. In 30 years the retirement landscape may look different from what it does now with different strategies and financial products.

I agree, but if your are going to talk to your financial guy anyway, consider a few things:
Are you really going to stay with your present employer for 30 more years? Probably not. If you change jobs you will get an opportunity to roll over to an IRA, which might have better investment choices and lower costs. Familiarize yourself with best options so you'll have a plan if the time comes.
Are you really going to work for thirty more years? I retired 10 years earlier than I expected to with half as much money as I thought I needed, and figured out that since I had always lived on half of my paycheck, it was all I needed anyway. Figure out a back up plan. Something could happen and you might find yourself needing to retire early, you've got quite a few years so a small adjustment now might give you a lot of flexibility in fifteen years, if you need to change your goals.

I’m in a very unique position. I “retired” from my first career and now do what I love. I don’t think I even work a day in my life now. My wife feels the same about her job. We are very fortunate. So I do think I will be there 30lus years

You must be working for the Federal Government.

How much are you paying this financial guy?

I am not saying would not make adjustments along the way but considering anything that you would do in 30 years today is unnecessary.

A flat fee. He’s a CPA and family friend
