Ginguy Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 You have the financial skills of a 5 yr old. Roth IRA contributions are made with after-tax dollars, and are generally tax-free when you receive distributions, so long as you meet the requirements and do not withdraw funds that are earned. If you withdraw funds before 59 1/2 yrs and it includes earned funds then you pay not only income tax on the funds but also a 10% penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roth 401k comes out after taxes on your paycheck. traditional is before taxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neko Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 401k are taken before tax and incur tax penalties at the time of withdrawl...ira is taxed and is in there for the long run. 401k can be rolled over to an ira. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah. I was unaware that there was a Roth 401k. I simply assumed Fuggs was ignorantly lumping retirement account terms together. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
