Rural Money: Are Trump Accounts Worth Checking Out?

Farm CPA Paul Neiffer shares insight into what these new accounts, established in provisions of the Big, Beautiful Bill, could mean for the farm families.

KENNEWICK, Wa. (RFD-TV) — One of the key elements of the “One Big Beautiful Bill” Act (OBBBA) is the introduction of Trump Accounts, designed to provide farm families with a tax-advantaged way to build and transfer wealth to the next generation.

Farm CPA Paul Neiffer joined us on Thursday’s Market Day Report to share insight into what these new accounts could mean for producers.

In his interview with RFD-TV News, Neiffer explained the details of the accounts, including how they could serve as a long-term savings and investment vehicle within the agricultural sector. When asked whether these accounts are a good deal for farmers, Neiffer noted that their benefits will depend on final implementation details and how producers structure them alongside existing financial plans.

Switching gears, Neiffer also discussed this week’s Supreme Court hearing on President Trump’s tariffs, which drew national attention. He shared key takeaways from the arguments and what the timeline could look like as the Court reviews the scope of presidential authority on trade policy.
