Description
The government is giving your kids free money 👶💰
Trump Accounts are new tax-advantaged investment accounts for children under 18. Here’s what you need to know:
👉$1,000 one-time deposit for kids born Jan 1, 2025 – Dec 31, 2028
👉$250 bonus for kids age 10 and under in zip codes with median household income under $150K
How it works:
👉 Invested in low-cost U.S. stock index funds
👉 Family, friends & employers can contribute up to $5,000/year
👉 No withdrawals until age 18, then it converts to a traditional IRA
👉 Grows tax-deferred
The math: If you open it at birth and max it out annually, you’d put in $90K total — growing to ~$202K by age 18. Leave it untouched and it could be worth $7.5M by retirement.
How to open one:
1️⃣ File IRS Form 4547 with your 2025 tax return (easiest way to start now)
2️⃣Or wait for the online portal at trumpaccounts.gov launching mid-2026
Actual contributions don’t begin until July 5, 2026 — but file the form now
