In today’s episode, we break down the key differences between Traditional and Roth IRAs and how they fit into the broader conversation about tax-advantaged retirement accounts. We’ll discuss when it makes sense to choose Roth over Traditional (or vice versa), how tax brackets and future uncertainty play into the decision, and some general rules of thumb to guide your choice. Most importantly, we’ll emphasize the importance of simply getting started with retirement savings—because delaying can cost more than making the “wrong” choice.
