what's a checkbook ira?

A checkbook IRA is basically an IRA that you can put anything in you can write a check for. Watches, bullion, crytpo, a business, a rental property. There are a lot of folks out there who specialize in them. I used Broad Financial myself. If you have a 401K from a job you don't work anymore, you can roll it into that.
Then you can drop like 50K a year in there pre-tax. So if you make 150K on Steem, you could put 50K into the checkbook IRA, buy bullion, and no tax.
