Unlock one of the most powerful tax and wealth-building strategies available today: the Mega Backdoor Roth. In this episode, Mat Sorensen breaks down how you can contribute up to $70,000 each year into Roth accounts, creating massive tax-free growth for retirement. Originally filmed for the Mat Sorensen YouTube channel, this special episode is now available on the Directed IRA Podcast.

Mat explains step by step:

  • Why the Mega Backdoor Roth is so effective for high-income earners
  • How to use a 401(k) or Solo 401(k) to maximize Roth contributions
  • The role of after-tax contributions and how to convert them
  • Key rules, qualifications, and pitfalls to avoid
  • Why rolling funds to a Roth IRA can provide greater investment flexibility and lower fees

Whether you’re a high earner with a workplace 401(k) or a self-employed professional with a Solo 401(k), this strategy can help you supercharge your retirement savings and build wealth tax free.
