Roth IRAs and Backdoor Roth Accounts: Which Is Right for You?
Episode Notes
Hey everybody, this is Gene Marks and thanks for joining me this week on the Hartford's Small Biz Ahead podcast. This week I wanna talk to you a little bit about Roth IRAs and backdoor Roths as well. A Roth IRA is something that everyone should have if possible. You are now allowed if you're a business owner to set up a Roth 401(k) account. That's also like your regular 401(k) account.

When you put money away into your retirement account, like a regular 401(k) or an or an IRA, you do realize that you're just deferring taxes, right?
