I have a very low taxable income this year. But will have a much higher taxable income next year. If i want to convert my TSP to a self directed IRA(or Roth?), is it best to do it during this year because of my low taxable income? I'm a 1099 employee now and will be a W2 employee starting in January.
Reason for moving funds out of the TSP is that I'd prefer the funds to be put to use now in real estate investing. I'll be putting more money back into my TSP when I get the W2 job again. I just want to pull some of the current funds into a self directed fund so that I can purchase an income producing asset.
