The IRS lets you hire and pay your kids for real work. That earned income can go into a Roth IRA and grow tax-free. $4k/year from age 10-18 becomes over $1M by retirement. The catch? Paperwork. Agreements, work logs, payment records. Most parents never bother because it's annoying. employkids makes it easy.
