Profitable stock is "one of the best targets for charitable giving" if the organization can accept it, said certified financial planner Michael Lofley with HBKS Wealth Advisors in Stuart, Florida. When filing taxes, you claim the bigger of the standard deduction or your total itemized deductions. Since 2018, there's been a higher standard deduction, and only about 10% of taxpayers itemized tax breaks on 2021 returns, according to the most recent IRS filing data. For 2024, the standard deduction is $14,600 for single taxpayers and $29,200 for married couples filing together. Your total itemized deductions must exceed those thresholds to claim the charitable deduction.

It's a "no-brainer" for "anyone in their 20s," says Eustache Clerveaux, a certified financial planner and senior analyst at Hudson Financial Group. This includes Roth 401(k)s. But for younger workers who don't have access to a workplace plan, a Roth IRA can be a great way to start building wealth. Like a 401(k), Roth IRA contributions benefit from compound interest, where your money and its returns grow together over time. Younger investors are less likely to hit Roth IRA income limitsOne key reason to start investing in your 20s is that you're more likely to qualify for a Roth IRA. This makes it an ideal time to pay taxes upfront on Roth IRA contributions.
