Q: On reading your SECURE 2.0 information, a revised RMD (required minimum distribution) to age 73 was mentioned. Prior to this new legislation, 72 was the RMD age. If this is in effect now in 2023, is it correct that if you turn 72 in 2023, you won't be required to take an RMD in 2023? Based on what I've read, the first RMD for a 72 year-old in 2023 would be pushed to age 73 in 2024? Thanks in advance for your insights!

Q: I am confused regarding the requirements for making a qualified charitable distribution. Is it necessary for the donation to be sent directly from the financial company to the charity, or can the check be made out to the charity but sent to me and then sent to the charity?
