Roth vs Traditional 401k Contributions - The White Coat Investor - Basics
Показать описание
If you’re a resident or military member, maximize Roth contributions.
If you’re in a low-income year for any reason, such as a sabbatical, use Roth contributions.
Use a personal and spousal backdoor Roth IRA each year. That way, even if you choose to make all tax-deferred 401(k) contributions, you’re still getting some money into Roth accounts.
If you can pay the tax with money in a taxable account and expect to work part time or retire in your 50s, then consider making Roth conversions during those years before receiving Social Security or a pension to “fill up the lower brackets.”
If you save and invest more than 20 percent of your gross income, lean a little more toward Roth investments. If you save and invest less, use tax-deferred accounts preferentially.
