Mark, great points here but it would have also been nice if you could have commented on self directed roth ira’s and how some people are using them to purchase real estate. I realize this isn’t a common practice but none the less it seems some savvy investors are doing it?

Mark. I’m confused when I read under the benefits and restrictions. If I put money in a Roth IRA, can I withdraw the money that I put in only without penalty or fees, or taxes? I realize if I withdraw the interest earned I would be subject to some sort of cost. I was thinking of using the money I put in to start a business that could be great income for my retirement years.

Great Article, My question is if I have $500000 in my Roth and I pass away and I leave it to my children and Grand Children. What are the tax implications for them???

I’ve heard nothing but good things about having a Roth IRA. Take the money out tax-free? Sign me up! Now just to find some money to add to my poorly funded Roth. But thanks for the reminder, I’ll have to reevalute my budget for ’10.

Great article. I wrote an article on my blog not too long ago comparing a Roth IRA to a 401k, and crunched some numbers as well. Give it a read and let me know what you think.

Having recently taken more control over my Roth IRA I’m taking action now to steer my investments personally vs. having to rely on a single retirement fund. I’m already seeing returns from my last position and will never go back to a single fund. THX..

I have a Roth and maxed it out in my first year and plan to do the same in the second year. I really like it a lot and recommend it to people.

If you qualify, the Roth IRA is one of the best retirement vehicles out there–by far.
