Most tax strategies are built to solve this year’s problem. This one is built to change the next 20. Trump Sec. 530A accounts introduce a structured way to begin wealth-building early, with the potential for coordinated contributions from families, employers, nonprofits, and even government programs. For RT3 clients, this is not just another account option. It is a long-term planning opportunity that shifts the conversation from annual tax savings to generational outcomes.
The Big Idea (Without the Technical Noise)
At its core, the concept is simple. An account is established for a child or young beneficiary and managed by a parent or guardian until adulthood. Once the beneficiary reaches age 18, control transfers to them. Along the way, multiple parties may have the ability to contribute.
That structure creates a rare planning combination: time, coordination, and tax efficiency. Time allows for compounding. Coordination allows for larger and more consistent funding. Tax strategy ensures that every dollar is working as efficiently as possible.
That is how generational wealth actually gets built; not through a single transfer later in life, but through intentional design early on.
Early compounding + coordinated funding + tax strategy.
Why This Matters for Our Clients
👨👩👧👧 For Families
For families, this represents something far more powerful than a savings vehicle. It is a head start. Instead of trying to pass wealth at the end of a lifetime, you begin building it at the beginning of one. The difference in long-term impact is enormous.
🏪 For Business Owners
For business owners, the planning opportunity becomes even more strategic. Properly structured employer contributions may be deductible to the business and excluded from employee income, transforming what would otherwise be compensation into a retention tool and a financial wellness benefit. In a competitive labor market, that matters.
🚀 For Mission-Driven Organizations
For mission-driven organizations and community-focused initiatives, these accounts create a new framework for funding workforce development and economic empowerment in a measurable, scalable way.
🪙 The Planning Opportunity Most People Will Miss
This is not about opening an account. It’s about coordinating:
✔️ Who funds it
✔️ How it’s invested
✔️ How it fits into your tax plan
✔️ How it supports your long-term wealth goals
That’s where strategy lives. And that’s where we work. The real value is not in opening the account. It is in designing the strategy around it.
✔️ Who contributes?
✔️ How is it funded over time?
✔️ How does it interact with the family’s tax plan, the business owner’s compensation strategy, and the long-term wealth roadmap?
Those are not product decisions. They are advisory decisions.
That is where planning lives. And that is where we work.
🤝 How RT3 Builds This Into Your Wealth Plan
At RT3 Business Solutions, we do not approach new legislation as a one-off recommendation. We integrate it into a full advisory framework that aligns tax planning, cash-flow strategy, entity structure, retirement planning, and generational wealth design.
This ensures that a Sec. 530A account is not operating in isolation, but as part of a coordinated system built around the client’s long-term goals.

🤔 Who Should Be Looking at This Right Now
This strategy is especially relevant for parents of young children, business owners who are rethinking how they invest in their workforce, and families who are in the wealth-building phase rather than the wealth-preservation phase.
In other words, this is not just for the ultra-wealthy.
It is for the families doing the work to change their financial trajectory. If your focus is long-term financial transformation instead of short-term tax reduction, this belongs in your plan.
