Hey guys, I just opened a 3k IRA this year to get some saver's credit tax breaks. I've also got a 401k with company match, which I use to the max. I also put money into non-special-retirement accounts, too. My question is, since i'm 25 and I plan on retiring in my late 30s, why should I be throwing money into accounts like the IRA which I can't touch until I'm 59.5? Shouldn't I just be throwing all the money into normal accounts, even though I have to pay taxes on it?
Thanks in advance,
Jordan
