Wealth Decision #5- Don't Just Invest in Your 401k


Listen Later

If all of your money is in a Traditional 401k, every dime you take out when you retire will be taxable. We don’t know where tax rates will be 10 or 20 years from now, so having all your money in a tax-deferred account doesn’t give you a lot of control. It is crucial to not just have investment diversification, but also account diversification. Account diversification gives you more flexibility and tax control.
