Answer #3 Absolutely utilize a 401K program of mutual fundswith as much as you can save. Hopefully this fundhas Roth 401K's in it. If it does not put thelimit per year into Roth IRA's . While in your401K balance the assets Stock funds, bond funds,and cash funds. While you are younger be a littleheavy on stocks 60% plus depending upon your risklevel but as you get over 55 start dropping that %stock to 50% or below. The ROTH Ira payout will be100% of your investment if you made good ones PLUSall of your interest and no TAXES -that is thegood bonus on the ROTH plus you can leave themoney in there even after 70 years old. - answered by Brick
