I am 56 years old and retired, supplementing my pension with capital gains and dividends. I plan to transfer money from my IRA to a ROTH IRA until I am 59.5 years old. How much should I withdraw, considering tax brackets (up to 25%, 28%, or 33%)? What are the expected tax rates in 2009, 2010, and beyond? Should I withdraw money now and pay taxes, anticipating future tax rate increases?

My aunt left me a house in 1991. I have never rented it out. Is it possible to use this residence in a 1031 exchange, and if so, what is the minimum rental period that would qualify it as an investment property?

I want to hire an employee who has worked for me part-time on an hourly wage in the past. I would like to hire him to a yearly salary of $48,000, but he has a tax lien against him that needs to be resolved. I want to give him an upfront bonus of $8,000 to help pay off this lien, which would put his taxable income at $56,000. What is the best way to structure this bonus to avoid adding it to his taxable income, and is it possible for the company to pay off the tax debt directly on his behalf as a business expense without adding it to his taxable income?
