You know it’s important to diversify your investment portfolio and tweak your asset mix as you get closer to retirement. But you might not appreciate that where you save can be just as important as what you save. Planners recommend having a mix of taxable and tax-free assets to increase financial flexibility in retirement. Consider opening a Roth account, whose contributions are taxed on the way in -- not on the way out like a traditional 401(k) or IRA.
Best wishes,
Elizabeth
