7. Higher Retirement Account Contributions (“Catch-Up” Contributions)

If you’re still working after 50 (including age 65+), you can contribute more to tax-advantaged retirement accounts.

For 2025–2026:

  • Higher limits on 401(k) contributions
  • Additional IRA catch-up contributions

Benefits:

  • Reduce your taxable income today
  • Increase your retirement savings
  • Grow money tax-deferred or tax-free

Important: This is especially useful for late retirees, part-time workers, and business owners.
