For as many years as we have had IRAs, we typically scramble at the last minute to fund our IRAs for the previous year just at tax time.
At the beginning of last year, we made a simple change: Automatically depositing money directly into our savings account instead of manually transferring it from checking.
In March 2017 we deposited our 2016 IRA money (like usual)
In June 2017 we deposited our first 2017 IRA money
In September 2017 we deposited the rest of our 2017 IRA money
Just last Friday we deposited the full amount for our 2018 IRA money ... we are now 15 months ahead!
