Which type of IRA is right for you?
As mentioned above, we offer three different kinds of retirement accounts. Here’s what makes them different.
Traditional IRA*
Make pre-tax contributions so that your investment grows tax-deferred. When you retire, you’ll pay income tax on your withdrawals.
Roth IRA *
Pay taxes on your contributions now so that all future withdrawals are tax-free. This makes sense if you think your taxes will be higher when you retire than they are now.
*We recommend consulting with a tax professional in order to choose the IRA that’s best for you.
