A traditional IRA is a type of retirement account that comes with certain tax-advantages. Individuals make tax-deductible contributions to the account, but pay income taxes when the money is withdrawn in retirement. Anyone can set up an IRA, though certain income limitations apply. Roth IRAs work very similarly to traditional individual retirement accounts, but the tax treatment is different (it’s reversed, actually). Roth IRA contributions aren’t tax-deductible, but you won’t pay any taxes when you take the money out later. Anyone can set up a Roth IRA, though certain income and contribution limitations apply.
