Open enrollment season often raises the critical question of whether to choose pre-tax (traditional) or Roth contributions for your 401(k). In this week’s episode, Matt Robison and certified financial planner Mike Morton break down this common dilemma, offering simple rules of thumb to help you make the right choice in minutes. They’ll explain the key differences—traditional contributions reduce your taxable income today but are taxed in retirement, while Roth contributions are taxed now and grow tax-free—and guide you on when to pick each option based on your career stage and tax bracket. Even if you get it "wrong," the good news is that saving consistently is always “right.”
