Scott and James discuss if you should save to a Deferred Compensation Plan after maxing out everything else.

Listener Question

My question is about non-qualified deferred compensation plans. I already max out my 401(k), megaback door (while we still can), Roth backdoor conversations, HSA, FSA, ESPP plan and my wife's SEP IRA and Roth. For the remaining cash I've typically invested in taxable accounts in dividend stocks for future income, but most recently have started using my company NCDC plan for part of salary and bonus. We are 50 YO and plan to retire in 10 years and elected a 10 year payout to minimize taxes in these remaining high earning years. There is also a likely chance that I change jobs every 2-3 years at this point which would potential trigger early distributions.

What are your thoughts on NCDC plans and the distributions?
