Welcome to the early retirement show. If you are a long time listener, thank you. And if you are new to the show, as a reminder, this show is dedicated to helping you retire early, otherwise known as the show dedicated to helping you understand what you have to do to be in a position where you are financially free, where work is now optional. So whether you are a few years out from retirement and you just want to know everything to prepare

for that big date or you're new in your journey and you want to get a head start on maximizing

what you've worked so hard for throughout your life, this is the show for you.

So we discuss everything from investments

to taxes to insurance and everything that comes in between. So without further ado, let's go

ahead and hop into today's episode. Welcome back to the early retirement show. Today's episode

is about 401ks versus Roth 401ks, which is really the same thing as Roth IRAs

versus IRAs with some differences that I'll talk about in today's episode.

And this is a very important one and a timely one, in my opinion, because as markets are

historically down in the last six months or so, we're looking at this and going,

what makes most sense and how can I be most efficient with the money that I'm contributing

to my 401k, to my Roth IRA, to my IRA, and what makes most sense oftentimes comes to a tax

question, an investment question, and both. And so that's what we're working through

in today's episode. Now, as I talked about last week, every week I'm going through and I'm

highlighting a recent review. So thank you to all of those who have been leaving reviews on the

Apple Podcast app, who have been checking out the YouTube and subscribing to all the new

content out there. I really appreciate it. You can find more information on that in the

description. And so I wanted to highlight this review by Kenny P. Cole. And Kenny says,

Ari brings positive energy to the table, which is essential when discussing financial planning topics.

This podcast is very informative and helpful for individuals seeking financial advice.

Highly recommend.

Well, thank you, Kenny.
