Hello..I work for a company that untill now has been 42% employee owned..Recently it has been announced the company is being sold and our shares of stock are being bought for about $50 a share..I have roughly 1,000 shares so that`s $50,000...I have lived a very poor and week to week life and that amount of money could change my life greatly right now or perhaps not far in the furture..I`ll save all the details and get to the point...The owners say they will only distribute the payouts into IRA accounts...Is there a specific type of IRA that will allow me to get my money in hand sooner without paying any more of a penalty than I need to?..Thanks in advance
