401K Versus Roth IRA

There cannot actually be a winner when you compare 401k versus Roth IRA, as they both have their set of advantages and drawbacks. Even when you consider the unique feature of self-directed 401k plan, it cannot be considered a retirement solution that can fit everybody.

But your beneficiary designation for your retirement plan is a critical part of your tax and estate planning. While many of us make sure that other important documents such as wills are updated on a frequent basis, we often overlook our retirement account beneficiary designations.
