“Love the show. One of my new favorites. Lots of great economic and market data, but for those of us working for companies with retirement plans in which we participate, it would be nice to dedicate a show to discussing such.
Some plans include pretax, after tax, and Roth options. It would help many of us to understand the contribution limits and benefits/disadvantages and tax implications related to these options. For example, one can only contribute to a Roth if they make less than $X, yet there is the option to roll your 401 into a Roth. How is that? What are the rules around that and is it worth doing? The 401 is limited to index funds and the investment strategies all look very similar. They seem to all invest in the same companies. We have limited choices. Is it better to take advantage of company matching programs tied to the 401 and then invest the rest in an IRA where one can actually invest in similar indices, yet have the added option to invest in companies, etc.?
I think a series of episodes dedicated to this would bring great ratings.
Thanks for your podcast and consideration.
