What is the essential difference between a "Traditional" IRA and a "Roth" IRA when it comes to contributions to and distributions from the two types of accounts. The primary difference between Roth IRA and a traditional IRA arises from the time an individual and how an individual can contribute to his individual retirement account. In Roth IRA, an individual contributes to his IRA after-tax dollars. The saved amount accumulates tax-free. Moreover, one can make tac and penalty-free withdrawals in Roth IRA after attaining 59.5 years. On the contrary, one can contribute before or after-tax dollars in a traditional IRA. Amounts saved through traditional IRA gain taxable. Lastly, withdrawals are taxed as current income after an individual has attained 59.5 years.

Donald $6500 Bernie $7000 Kamal $4000 Warren $6000 Q 2b Donald, Bernie, and Warren can enjoy a full tax deduction for traditional IRA contributions.
