Why I’m trying to max my Roth IRA asap:
What is Transfer Tuesday?
It was coined by Mary from @PenniesNotPerfection and it’s the day of the week where you move ANY amount of money to ANY of your financial goals (debt, savings, investments, sinking funds, etc.).
I tend to transfer money multiple times a week to my various goals, but I always make a transfer on Tuesday as well!
What’s the point?
You will make quicker progress the more transfers you make (less interest paid on debt, more interest gained in your savings accounts, more money compounding in your investments). It also helps your money mindset because it feels good to make progress on a regular basis!
Other info about my journey:
The only debt I have left is my $36,000 of student loan debt. However, Federal student loans have been in forbearance and at 0% interest since March 2020. For that reason, I have been saving money in my high-yield savings account and I will make a lump sum payment once the pause has ended. I choose to save the money because I am gaining interest in my HYS account so I am technically making money off of my debt!
I now have enough money saved to completely pay off my debt, so I am focusing on investing/saving!

It’s that time of the year again – Transfer Tuesday for 2023 Roth IRAs! This annual event is a great opportunity for individuals to transfer their funds into a Roth IRA and take advantage of the potential tax benefits and retirement savings opportunities.
For those who may not be familiar, a Roth IRA is a retirement savings account that offers tax-free growth and distributions. Unlike traditional IRAs, contributions to a Roth IRA are made with after-tax dollars, which means that withdrawals in retirement are typically tax-free.
Transfer Tuesday, which is typically held on the second Tuesday of the year, is a designated day for individuals to initiate transfers of funds from other retirement accounts, such as traditional IRAs, 401(k)s, or other qualified retirement plans, into a Roth IRA. This can be a great opportunity for individuals who are looking to maximize their retirement savings and take advantage of tax-free growth potential.
There are several potential benefits to transferring funds into a Roth IRA on Transfer Tuesday. First and foremost, individuals may be able to take advantage of tax-free growth on their investments. This can be especially valuable for those who believe that their tax rate in retirement may be higher than it is currently, as withdrawals from a Roth IRA are not subject to income tax.
Additionally, individuals may be able to access a wider range of investment options within a Roth IRA, which can help them build a more diversified and potentially higher-performing portfolio. By transferring funds into a Roth IRA, individuals can take advantage of the flexibility and control that comes with managing their own retirement investments.
For those who are considering making a transfer into a Roth IRA on Transfer Tuesday, it’s important to keep in mind the rules and limitations that come with these accounts. There are annual contribution limits for Roth IRAs, which for 2023 is $6,000 for individuals under 50, or $7,000 for those 50 and older. Additionally, individuals must meet certain income requirements in order to contribute to a Roth IRA directly, although there are no income limits for making transfers from other retirement accounts.
It’s also important to consider the potential tax implications of transferring funds into a Roth IRA. Individuals will need to pay income tax on any pre-tax contributions and earnings that are transferred into a Roth IRA, so it’s important to carefully consider the impact on their current tax situation.
Overall, Transfer Tuesday for 2023 Roth IRAs presents a valuable opportunity for individuals to take control of their retirement savings and potentially maximize their tax benefits. By transferring funds into a Roth IRA, individuals can take advantage of tax-free growth potential and a wider range of investment options, while also positioning themselves for a potentially more tax-efficient retirement. For those who are considering making a transfer, it may be wise to consult with a financial advisor or tax professional to ensure that they fully understand the potential benefits and implications of this decision.

These videos are really encouraging! I am also about to turn 30 soon and feeling some anxiety about my finances and being behind on my retirement savings. Congrats on maxing out your Roth IRA!!
Great job with maxing out the Roth IRA, Leila! I haven't caught one of your videos in a couple months, but it's great to see this amazing milestone!
