| Roth Vs Sep for Small Business Owner |
 |
|
I am considering going with a SEP IRA only to lower my end of year taxable income... however the ROTH IRA seems to be the smarter IRA of choice as the gains are not taxed.
I am 27 now and want to start making the maximum contributions by making 12 monthly payments.
Should I open the IRA up my current bank or is there a recommended bank you guys use here?
Thanks

Depending upon your level of income and how much you can afford to defer, a 401(k) may be a better option for you. You can deduct up to $44k (or 25% of income) as the ER, and up to $15,500 as the EE, reducing income substantially in most cases. Plus you can still make your Roth IRA contributions...

Tax advantages and great interest rates make MetLife Bank IRAs an appealing choice for smart savers. You can contribute to a MetLife Bank IRA even if you already have an employer-sponsored retirement plan.
