    You pay no interest, you (and everyone else no matter what they do or don’t do) still lose purchasing power at 5%. You pay 3% interest on your debt, you’re effectively losing purchasing power at 8%. You’re getting paid zilch.

    If the democrats lock the back doors then I will continue to make after tax contributions but invest in total bond instead of total market. And counterbalance with more total market in my taxable account.

    Under this proposal in Congress, can you contribute to a Traditional IRA, roll it into Tradtional 401k (if the plan allows) and then convert to Roth 401k (if the plan allows)? Thanks, great podcast and website!
