I have seen three other non-trivial factual mistakes in the
last two months in financial planning columns. I suppose
these columns do more good than bad. Still, I would trust a
well-cited majority answer at internet fora like this before
I trusted a questionable statement in a newspaper column. My
experience with early withdrawals, and double checking with
Pub 590, shows Joe and the others here are correct, and the
ChiTrib statement is wrong.
